I am a UK Specialist Registrar in Cardiology & Intensive Care with a particular interest in heart transplantation and mechanical circulatory support such as ECMO. I'm currently ST10 having trained at Royal Brompton & Harefield, Guy’s & St Thomas and Barts hospitals in London.

The effect of mechanical support on human physiology is fascinating and the chance to see patients come back from life threatening events and go on to live fulfilling lives is a privilege.
