Philosophy

The thinking behind the work

Heart surgery is a big decision, and it should never feel rushed. I spend the first consultation explaining what your scans show, what the options are, and what recovery will ask of you and your family.

  • Medicines and stents first, when they are enough
  • Smaller cuts where it is safe to use them
  • A recovery plan that starts before the operation

Specialisations

Areas of surgery

  • Coronary bypass

  • Minimally invasive surgery
