Summary

As a cardiac physiologist with over 17 years experience, I have a proven track record of providing exceptional care and expertise within the NHS. I started primarily in the Cath Lab with PCI and PPCI, then specializing in Cardiac Devices (Loop, Brady, ICD, CRT devices) for the next 8 years. For the last 18 months my role has been primarily echo based, working towards my BSE accreditation in transthoracic echo. With extensive experience in echocardiography, device implantation procedures, monitoring patient progress, and conducting diagnostic tests, I am committed to ensuring the best possible outcomes for my patients. In addition to my technical skills, I possess strong communication and collaboration abilities, working closely with a multidisciplinary team to deliver high-quality patient centered care. My proficiency in data analysis and interpretation, as well as my dedication to ongoing professional development, has enabled me to stay abreast of the latest advancements in cardiac technology and treatment modalities.

Overall, I am a driven and compassionate professional who is committed to delivering outstanding care and improving outcomes for cardiac patients.
