About Dr Gary Wright

Dr Gary A Wright is a leading Consultant Cardiologist and heart rhythm specialist in Glasgow, Scotland. He provides private cardiology care at Ross Hall Hospital and also works in the NHS at the Golden Jubilee National Hospital, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, and Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

He specialises in diagnosing and treating heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias), including atrial fibrillation (AF), palpitations, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), atrial flutter, ventricular tachycardia (VT), ectopic beats, and blackouts/syncope. Patients often see him for private atrial fibrillation treatment, catheter ablation procedures, and management of palpitations or unexplained dizziness.

Dr Wright trained in Scotland, England, and Canada, including advanced heart rhythm training with world experts. He set up the cardiac ablation service at Ross Hall Hospital, where he is the senior electrophysiology consultant. He performs the full range of ablations using the latest techniques, including CryoBalloon, 3D CARTO mapping, and is introducing the latest  Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) technology.

Independent audits over the last 10 years show that Dr Wright has among the lowest complication rates in electrophysiology, giving patients confidence in safe, effective, and personalised care.

Outside of medicine, he enjoys travelling, reading, and cooking.

We had a really positive experience with Dr Gary Wright and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. My son has had ongoing episodes of significant tachycardia for a long time, alongside other symptoms, and we have struggled to get a clear understanding of what might be happening. Dr Wright took the time to listen properly to his history and look carefully at the evidence we had brought with us. For the first time, we felt that someone was really looking closely at what was happening during the episodes rather than simply focusing on the heart rate. He explained what he could see in a way that was clear and easy for us to understand, and talked us through what the next steps and possible options might be. We never felt rushed, and he was incredibly thorough, kind and reassuring throughout the appointment. We came away feeling listened to and, importantly, with a much better understanding of what may be causing my son’s symptoms and a plan for moving forward. We are extremely grateful for the time and care Dr Wright gave us and would highly recommend him.

Dr Gary Wright handled my initial consultation with the utmost professionalism and courtesy. With the subject matter being my heart I obviously had a lot of questions in relation to this and the treatment recommended. Dr Gary Wright managed to answer all my questions to my satisfaction and managed to alleviate the anxieties I had over the type of procedure recommended. I now feel in a much better place going forward and now looking forward to the procedure and hopefully recovering my ability to enjoy a more active lifestyle.
