Professional profile: I undertook my general cardiology training in the North East of England and completed my subspecialty training in Cardiac Electrophysiology and Device Therapy at James Cook University Hospital (Middlesbrough) and Freeman Hospital (Newcastle upon Tyne). I completed my Cardiology training in February 2017 and then undertook a fellowship in Cardiac Electrophysiology at John Radcliffe Hospital (Oxford) before starting work as a Locum Consultant Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist at the same institution.
I started my substantive Consultant post at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital in July 2018 and am currently working with my colleague Dr Richard Till to develop a complex Cardiac Electrophysiology service for the people of Norfolk.
My training has provided me with a breadth of experience in all aspects of cardiology and arrhythmia management including standard and complex ablation and device implantation.
My interest in cardiac electrophysiology stems from my intercalated Bachelor of Medical Science degree which I undertook in 2002. The main focus of this research was on the utility of surface ECG waveform analysis in assessing the impact of pharmacological and catheter ablation treatments in patients with atrial fibrillation. I subsequently developed this research into an MD project which was funded by the British Heart Foundation as a Clinical Research Training Fellowship and completed in December 2015.
