About Dr Martin Lowe

GMC number: 3442476

Year qualified: 1990

Place of primary qualification: St George’s Hospital

Dr Martin Lowe is a highly experienced Consultant Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist, specialising in the treatment of arrhythmias in both adults and children. He is renowned for his expertise in catheter ablation and pacemaker/defibrillator implantation. Dr Lowe practices at The Harley Street Clinic and Portland Hospital in London.

Dr Lowe studied medicine at St George’s Hospital, London, and completed his specialist training in London and Cambridge. He further honed his skills during a Research Fellowship at The Mayo Clinic in the USA. Since his appointment, he has been instrumental in advancing arrhythmia services in the UK.

As a leading figure in his field, Dr Lowe has held significant roles, including serving as Clinical Director at the Barts Heart Centre in London. He is also actively involved with the British Heart Rhythm Society. His research interests are diverse and include ablation strategies for arrhythmias associated with congenital heart disease and heart muscle disease, risk stratification in patients and families predisposed to sudden cardiac death, and multisite pacing in heart failure patients. His work is frequently published in peer-reviewed journals.

In addition to his clinical and research work, Dr Lowe is dedicated to the education of future specialists. He is an Honorary Senior Lecturer at University College London and Queen Mary University London, where he contributes to the training and development of medical trainees.

Dr Lowe's commitment to his field and his patients is evident in his extensive experience and ongoing contributions to cardiology and electrophysiology.
