My Work

I am a cardiologist, with subspecialist training in heart failure and cardiac imaging.

I do a general cardiology clinic, and a specialist heart failure clinic. I am particularly interested in cardiac metabolism and the effects of metabolic disease on the heart, iron deficiency and the use of iron replacement in heart failure patents.

I have EACVI Level III accreditation in Cardiac MRI. I am also trained in cardiac nuclear scans (PET/CT and SPECT) for the assessment of cardiac anatomy, perfusion and metabolism.

My research interest intersects my clinical passion for heart failure and cardiac imaging. I have done detailed work on the impact of iron deficiency in heart failure.

My PhD included translation work on a murine model of iron deficiency, as well as setting up and running a randomised clinical trial to assess the effect of iron deficiency on cardiac mitochondrial function and energetics using 31-Phosphorus Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

You can see a list of my publications here.

I have a role as a Senior Clinical Informatics Lead. As part of this role I am heavily involved in the rollout of a new Electronic Patient Record in my Trust, as well as work on digitising cardiac diagnostics. I also contribute to the AI steering group for the trust.

I have previously worked on digital strategy and healthcare IT product development while on secondment at the professional services firm Deloitte.
