About

Consultant cardiologist Dr Ahsan is based at St Bartholomew's Hospital where he is also the training lead for the heart rhythm unit at Barts Health Centre. He also sees patients at North Middlesex University Hospital and was responsible for implementing the arrhythmia service there.

Dr Ahsan takes pride in putting his patients first and conducts thorough assessments, fully informing his patients of their treatment options. He treats a range of cardiac symptoms, such as blackouts, chest pains, dizziness, and high blood pressure. He also uses the latest technology available to perform both basic and complex catheter ablation treatments for all arrhythmias (including atrial fibrillation). In addition, Dr Ahsan specialises in cardiac device implantation including pacemaker, defibrillator, and cardiac resynchronisation therapy.

Dr Ahsan gained his medical qualification from Guy's, King's, and St Thomas' Medical School before undertaking his specialist cardiology training and completing a fellowship in cardiac electrophysiology and cardiac devices at the Heart Hospital. He also earned an MD from University College London, where his research investigating techniques to improve outcomes in patients with cardiac rhythm devices earned him the Royal Society of Medicine National Prize. He remains active in research and is currently investigating novel methods for the treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Explanation

I cannot rate Dr Ashan highly enough. I visited him where he diagnosed me with SVT, during the initial consultation we discussed my family heart history & due to this Dr Ahsan adding in some additional tests. After all the tests I was formally diagnosed with SVT & he also found some plaque build up which he was able to give me the correct medication for. I opted for the Ablation to correct the SVT and during the surgery he was so amazing with me, the start of the surgery you are awake and Dr. Ahsan kept making sure I was ok and even went to see my Mum to let her know it was a success whilst I was in recovery. I’m very grateful to Dr. Ahsan for treating me so well, fixing the SVT & diagnosing the plaque build up so it will not cause me problems in the future. I would recommend him to anyone needing to see a cardiologist.

Explanation

I went to see Dr Ahsan due to worrying symptoms shortly after my COVID vaccination booster. He not only listened sympathetically but took my concerns seriously, and confirmed them as it turned out I had Pericarditis. I underwent detailed tests and throughout my 15 months' recovery journey, he was completely professional, reassuring and thorough. Not only was he supportive but also taking an interest in me as a person. His excellent advice and care (even answering occasional email questions) made all the difference and helped me recover. I will continue to see Dr Ahsan annually to monitor progress, he is very approachable and I highly recommend him to anyone who has heart issues of any kind.

Explanation

I would wholeheartedly (no pun intended) recommend Dr Ahsan. In all our consultations and at the hospital, he thoroughly explained every stage of treatment. After my ablation I was given a detailed debrief of what it involved. I am delighted at the outcome of my procedure. During the whole of his care I felt relaxed and confident of what was happening. This reassurance made the mental journey of facing a heart procedure less stressful.
