Consultant Cardiologist

The appointee will be joining a team of three ICC cardiologists and 3 ICC nurses. We have a rolling post CCT ICC fellow post to support the service. There will be a specific specialist nurse for cardiac amyloidosis appointed in conjunction with this post. The wider team includes seven imaging cardiologists, twelve pacing and EP cardiologists and the larger cardiology consultant group. Due to the expansion of amyloid services by NHS England this is an exciting opportunity to be involved in creating and delivering a new service, at a time when care for these patients is evolving rapidly. The expansion of ICC and cardiomyopathy services also provides a chance to work in an established, high volume cardiomyopathy centre. The LHCH ICC unit has a team that can provide detailed phenotyping and care for these patients, including complex devices, interventional procedures and specialist surgeons. We enjoy close links to clinical genetics with presence on site at clinics and with clinical and lab staff for MDTs.
