Areas of expertise I am a Consultant in Paediatric Cardiology at the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. My specialties are interventional cardiac catheterisation for congenital and structural heart disease - which includes the closure of holes such as atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects and patent arterial ducts and foetal cardiology (diagnosis and management of heart disease recognised in the unborn baby by ultrasound examination).

I undertook extensive training in general paediatrics and neonatalogy before concentrating on paediatric cardiology.

I have particular interest in Telemedicine.
