    Dr Saqib Chowdhary is a highly esteemed Consultant in Cardiology and Coronary Intervention at Wythenshawe Hospital, Manchester. He qualified from St Thomas' Hospital, London, and has undergone extensive training in cardiology and coronary intervention at University Hospital Birmingham, Walsgrave Hospital (Coventry), and the University Health Network in Toronto, Canada.

    Dr Chowdhary has a wealth of experience in general cardiology, with particular expertise in angina, hypertension, and heart failure. His sub-specialist interests include coronary angioplasty and TAVI (transcatheter aortic valve implantation). He is proficient in complex stenting procedures, including radial access procedures and chronic total occlusions (CTO). He also utilises intra-coronary imaging techniques such as IVUS and OCT to enhance stenting outcomes and performs transcutaneous septal ablation for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

    In 2002, Dr Chowdhary was awarded a PhD in Medicine and has since published extensively on topics such as nitric oxide, cardiac autonomic dysfunction, and heart failure. His contributions to the field were recognised in 2003 when he was named Young Investigator of the Year by the British Cardiac Society. He further honed his skills through an international interventional fellowship at the Toronto General and Mount Sinai Hospitals.

    Dr Chowdhary's clinical interests encompass a wide range of procedures and conditions, including TAVI, ECG, FFR, interventional cardiology, and various cardiological investigations. He treats conditions such as angina, chest pain, hypertension, high blood pressure, cardiomyopathy, heart attacks, myocardial infarction, and aortic stenosis. His commitment to patient care and advanced medical techniques makes him a leading figure in his field.
