About Dr. Christopher Broyd
Dr Christopher Broyd is a Consultant Cardiologist based in Brighton, specialising in the diagnosis and management of chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness and syncope. He is regarded as one of the region's most skilled interventionalists, with particular expertise in coronary angiography and angioplasty (stent implantation).
As a structural heart specialist, Dr Broyd has performed nearly 1,000 TAVI procedures and is also proficient in PFO closure for stroke prevention with very low complication rates. He is additionally a pioneer in drug-coated balloon treatment for coronary artery disease — an advanced technique that treats heart arteries without leaving a stent behind, allowing more natural healing and potentially better long-term outcomes.
Dr Broyd completed his medical degree at Guy's, King's and St Thomas' Medical School in 2003, followed by specialist cardiology training at leading UK centres including Barts Heart Centre, Harefield Hospital and Hammersmith Hospital. He holds a PhD from Imperial College London, where his research focused on cardiovascular physiology and the non-invasive assessment of cardiovascular function. He went on to complete advanced fellowship training at Hospital Clínico San Carlos in Madrid, and has since held consultant positions in both the UK and Australia. He currently practises within the NHS at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust and sees private patients at Nuffield Health Brighton.
Alongside his clinical work, Dr Broyd previously held an associate professorship at Griffith University, Australia, and is active in postgraduate medical education, supervising MD and PhD candidates and serving as a PhD examiner. His research interests span cardiovascular imaging, diagnostic innovation and the application of machine learning to cardiology, and he has built a strong collaborative relationship with the AI department at the University of Sussex, where he currently supervises PhD students in both AI and cardiology.
He has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications, contributed to textbooks, and presented at international cardiology conferences. He was a finalist for the Samuel Levine American Heart Association Young Investigator of the Year award, is a Member of the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP), and holds an honorary position at Brighton and Sussex Medical School.

AI Review Summary

Dr. Christopher Broyd gives clear advice to patients in clinic. He answers questions and puts people at ease. Patients seek his care for chest pain and cardiac screening.
I saw Dr. Broad to discuss my condition and upcoming procedure. I found his explanation extremely helpful.
It was nice to be seen face to face, but felt Doctors and my time were a bit wasted, in that it could have been a phone call appt as no tests required, but grateful an Echo will be arranged shortly. Thank you.
Such a friendly doctor. I felt at ease and able to ask questions. I was given clear answers.
It was nice to meet Dr. Boyd and know that l am receiving good care for which l am grateful. I had arrived very early for my appointment, but Dr. Boyd saw me much sooner than my appointment time - and l thank him for that.
Everyone is polite, from reception up to Doctor. Cannot fault anyone.
My consultation with Dr Broyd was excellent. He was welcoming and approachable rapidly putting me at ease in would could have been a stressful situation. He was ready to listen carefully to my answers to his questions, and he responded clearly but sensitively to my questions. I left with what I believe is a clearer understanding of my situation and the next steps which need to be taken.
I was seen very soon without any waiting despite arriving early
Nurses and doctor were all polite, on time and efficient
When I first saw Dr Broyd I had been treated in hospital for a week with unstable angina. I was also under the care of a private consultant for the Bronchiectasis which had been detected in a hospital CT scan. I had another CT scan and other tests and was told I had an enlarged heart. My CT scans also showed serious artery blockages, I failed most of my tests for my heart. At that time no attention was given to my Bronchiectasis and I remained very tired and out of breath. I was at a very low and had made my will, I had a planned trip with my grandson and I never thought I would make it. Dr Broad sent me for tests but was not convinced it was my heart and offered a Coronary Angiogram with if needed a stent. A Coronary Angiogram is conclusive proof of any heart defect or blockages of arteries. Dr Broyd found minor issues and a reasonable result for my age, there was no enlarged heart, it was later shown as a shadow from the Bronchiectasis which is near the heart. Dr Broyd gave me back my confidence, my energy for life and more important my peace of mind. Dr Broyd explains, involves and treats the person, he cares about patients.
