Specialises in
I am a Consultant Cardiologist with specialist interest in heart failure and cardiac devices, employed at Hull University Teaching Hospitals. I also provide heart failure services at Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Trusts. I am passionate about delivering high quality, efficient, patient-centered care.
I see patients who present with a variety of cardiology symptoms including: breathlessness after activity or at rest, feeling tired most of the time and finding exercise exhausting, swollen ankles and legs. As a cardiologist I also see patients with chest pain, palpitations, dizziness and blackouts.
I am trained as a specialist in heart failure. After successfully completing a fellowship in advanced heart failure and cardiac transplantation at Scottish Advanced National Heart Failure Services, Golden Jubilee Hospital, Glasgow, I further enhanced my training and knowledge by undertaking a research fellowship in heart failure at Hull followed by subspecialty training in Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust.
I am also trained in cardiac devices and undertook a one year fellowship in the highest volume centre for cardiac devices in the UK, Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital. Once I was appointed as a consultant in heart failure and devices in Hull University Teaching Hospitals, I took the opportunity to develop an underdeveloped area of cardiology in Hull cardiac devices. I have established the first nurse/physiologist led loop implant service in Hull, developed pathways that enabled patients to go home the same day after their devices procedure, saving time for the patient and freeing up beds for hospital, started the first sub-cutaneous ICD service and recently established the pacemaker/defibrillator lead extraction services for the East Yorkshire and Humber region.
