Dr Bashir Alaour

Dr Bashir Alaour is a Consultant Cardiologist specialising in interventional cardiology and structural heart valve interventions within the United Kingdom. His clinical practice focuses on minimally invasive catheter-based procedures for the treatment of valvular and coronary heart disease.

He completed a British Cardiac Intervention Society (BCIS) International Fellowship at Bern University Hospital, where he trained in advanced structural heart interventions including transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), transcatheter mitral valve repair, and transcatheter tricuspid valve repair. Following this fellowship, he established and leads a Structural Heart Valve Intervention service at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, working in collaboration with University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust and Royal Brompton & Harefield Hospitals.

He is also trained in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ischaemic heart disease and manages a broad range of cardiovascular conditions within interventional cardiology practice.

Dr Alaour completed a PhD at King’s College London, supported by a British Heart Foundation Clinical Research Training Fellowship. His research focused on cardiac biomarkers, including cardiac myosin-binding protein C, for the diagnosis of myocardial injury. He has contributed to research on the outcomes of transcatheter valve interventions and has published in peer-reviewed cardiology journals.

His work includes involvement in clinical research collaborations at national and international level, with focus areas including structural heart disease, interventional cardiology outcomes, and cardiovascular diagnostics.
