In April 2022 Roberto Casula repaired my mitral valve at the Wellington Hospital. Before I was anaesthetised I asked him to be sure to do « some Ferrari engineering in there if you are going into my heart! ». There is hardly a day that goes by when I do not think of him and his 100% successful operation. I will be ever grateful. In November (seven months after the operation), to regain my pilot’s licence, I got through the exercise ECG test (9 minutes to Bruce P rotocol level 4), but the CAA kept me on the ground until April 2023 before finally giving my licence back. To get through the test (I confess I failed it in October) I forced myself to go jogging every day for a month, working up from 1km to 5kms. With determination I succeeded. Later that month I was hiking and climbing looking at glaciers in Patagonia, one day hiking 23 Km and climbing 4000 feet. At the end of the 2023 year, I enjoyed several days of stag hunting on a horse (exhausting stuff!), and a week of testing skiing. In April 2023, I finally got back into the sport I really enjoy - aerobatics. I started off with an instructor just to make sure my heart would tolerate it. Both Mr Casula and Professor Tom Wong, my cardiologist, had said that, after a successful operation, pulling G would be fine from a cardiological point of view. I then did quite a lot of solo aerobatics in the summer of 2023, and I can confirm that both were absolutely right, to my intense delight! No adverse reactions at all from my heart! So I have fully regained my former lifestyle, for which I am eternally grateful. I am having a lot of fun and am in excellent health – at 73 years old, I seem in much better shape than most of my friends and contemporaries. All thanks to a remarkably successful minimally invasive operation. It was truly a great « Ferrari job »!

It was a pleasure to meet Dr Nijjer. He was highly professional with a lot of deep expertise.

Dr Chandran is a fantastic doctor. He provided excellent care and treatment. I would highly recommend him.

Dr Grigeur is a very caring, professional and thorough cardiologist. She ensures all testing is carried out to a high standard, communicates results and explains symptoms-/ treatment plan accordingly ( and in an easy to understand manner). She is also very reassuring with regards to her availability in case of worsening symptoms , and I feel in very good hands,

Discovering you have developed an erratic heartbeat can be a worrying experience. I chose to have a consultation with Dr Gurunathan because of his knowledge, skills and expertise on cardio issues, including diagnostic imaging. I found Dr Gurunathan easy to talk to, helpful and insightful. He took time to explain how a normal heart functions, in contrast to the ectopic beats I was experiencing. From our discussion, he was able to quickly analyse the likely cause of my condition, before arranging a series of tests to confirm the diagnosis. His thoroughness of approach was very reassuring. I was kept fully informed at each stage of the testing process. Dr Gurunathan helpfully addressed all the questions I raised and I am very grateful to him for his time and professional patient care. I would highly recommend Dr Gurunathan to others seeking high quality cardio help and advice.

Dr Zoe was very helpful, supportive and excellent. She listened carefully and provided us with all the information we needed. She made sure we understood all that was going on with the treatment plan and that was most reassuring.

Very pleased with my experience seeing Dr Snow
