About Mr Ashraf Elsharkawy

Mr Ashraf Elsharkawy is a Consultant Vascular and Endovascular Surgeon providing specialist vascular care across Warwickshire and the West Midlands. Alongside his role at University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust, he also consults privately at Nuffield Health Warwickshire Hospital, where he offers advanced assessment and treatment for a wide range of vascular conditions.

With more than 15 years of clinical experience, Mr Elsharkawy trained at leading UK institutions including King’s College Hospital and Manchester Royal Infirmary. His background has provided extensive expertise in both open vascular surgery and minimally invasive endovascular procedures, allowing him to manage complex vascular disease using modern, evidence-based techniques with a strong focus on patient-centred care.

He is particularly recognised for his expertise in varicose vein and venous disease treatment, offering minimally invasive procedures such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA), foam sclerotherapy, and micro-sclerotherapy for spider and thread veins. His approach prioritises effective symptom relief, improved circulation, cosmetic outcomes, and faster recovery times.

Mr Elsharkawy also specialises in advanced lower limb revascularisation and limb salvage procedures, particularly for patients with diabetic foot disease and critical limb ischaemia. Following a dedicated fellowship at King’s College Hospital in 2018, he developed advanced expertise in restoring blood flow using both open surgical and endovascular techniques to help prevent limb loss and improve long-term vascular health outcomes.

In addition, his practice includes the management of aortic aneurysms and carotid artery disease, with a strong emphasis on stroke prevention and complex vascular reconstruction.

Alongside his clinical work, Mr Elsharkawy is actively involved in academic research and medical education. He is widely published in peer-reviewed vascular journals and holds a Certificate in Medical Education, reflecting his commitment to teaching, mentoring, and advancing evidence-based vascular surgery within both NHS and private healthcare settings.

Mr Elsharkawy saved my life in September 2025 performing a complex operation to remove a large aneurysm and blood clot from my internal carotid artery. My recent appointment was to check recovery progress and review results from latest tests. Mr Elsharkawy also took the time to explain the operation he had performed in a level of detail that I previously wouldn’t have been able to absorb. Throughout the time from diagnosis to operation and post-op reviews, Mr Elsharkawy has conducted himself in a manner that instilled absolute confidence in his ability which has been proven out by the results. I will be forever grateful to him and all of the team for saving my life

I have been treated with what I consider to be great care and professionalism throughout the whole procedure, from the explanation of what was required, to the operation itself and the aftercare. Though discovering the need for such a complex and dangerous operation was worrying, I was well informed and have been pleased with the follow ups and results .

Basically if Ashraf and his colleagues hadn’t undertaken my complex operation. The result would have ended up very differently for me and am eternally grateful. I was hospitalised for some weeks, where I received absolutely first care at all times.

Pioneering a Safer EVAR: UHCW Hosts the UK's First IVUS-Assisted EVAR Course

Pioneering a Safer EVAR: UHCW Hosts the UK's First IVUS-Assisted EVAR Course

We at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire (UHCW) successfully delivered the UK's first dedicated IVUS-Assisted Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) course, bringing together vascular specialists for two days of education, innovation, and live procedural demonstrations. The course focused on the growing role of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in EVAR and its potential to transform endovascular practice. EVAR is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms, traditionally relying on fluoroscopic imaging and iodinated contrast agents. While highly effective, these techniques expose patients and healthcare professionals to ionising radiation and contrast-related risks. The first day of the course explored radiation safety and highlighted how IVUS can significantly reduce, and in selected cases potentially eliminate, the need for both radiation and contrast during EVAR procedures. By providing a real-time, 360-degree intraluminal view of the aorta and iliac vessels, IVUS enables accurate vessel assessment, device sizing, graft deployment, and procedural verification while enhancing safety for patients, operators, and the wider theatre team. A key highlight of the programme was the second day, during which delegates observed two IVUS-assisted EVAR procedures transmitted live from the operating theatre. The live cases offered a unique opportunity to demonstrate practical workflow integration, procedural decision-making, and the advantages of IVUS-guided aneurysm repair in real-world clinical practice. The course brought together consultant vascular surgeons from across the UK and generated highly positive feedback from attendees. The success of the event reflects our commitment to advancing vascular innovation, improving patient safety, and promoting excellence in endovascular education. The course marks an important milestone in the adoption of IVUS-guided EVAR in the United Kingdom and reinforces UHCW's position as a leading centre for innovation in vascular and endovascular surgery.
