My appointment with Dr Chow was a follow-up following an unplanned admission to CCU via A&E at RBH with atrial fibrillation and atrial tachycardia. I have known Dr Chow since 2002. Dr Chow makes one feel completely at ease. He had clearly taken the time to review my medical history thoroughly and understood both my previous treatment and the events leading to my recent admission. The consultation lasted around 30 minutes, yet I never felt rushed. Dr Chow listened carefully, answered every question I had, explained my medication and treatment plan in clear, understandable language, and involved me fully in the discussion about the next steps. I left feeling reassured, much better informed, and confident about what would happen next. One aspect I particularly appreciated was his willingness to explain recent changes in NHS policy regarding catheter ablation, helping me understand how these developments relate to my own care. His knowledge, professionalism, kindness and calm manner inspired real confidence. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Chow to anyone requiring cardiology care. He combines exceptional clinical expertise with genuine compassion and excellent communication, qualities that make a significant difference to patients during what can be a worrying time.

The procedure was explained clearly and I felt reassured about what I would experience. After the procedure Professor Chow met me and explained the outcome of the procedure and follow up appointment. I felt very well cared for by Professor Chow and all staff I met in the day. Excellent care.

I had a brilliant experience with Professor Anthony Chow. After previous cardiology visits with no diagnosis/explanation for what was happening to me, he was able to diagnose me with WPW and treat me within a month. A year post surgery and I have not had any further issues with the WPW or afib
