About Dr Howard Marshall

Dr. Howard Marshall is a Consultant Cardiologist specialising in cardiac rhythm disorders. He qualified in 1988 with an MBChB from the University of Leeds and went on to earn his MD from the University of Birmingham, where his research focused on atrioventricular node ablation and pacing in the treatment of atrial fibrillation. He became a Member of the Royal College of Physicians in 1992.

Appointed as a Consultant at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in 2000, Dr. Marshall has played a leading role in developing advanced cardiac services. He established the hospital’s pacing and defibrillator service, which has grown to become the largest in the region. In collaboration with Dr. Mike Griffith, he has also expanded the ablation service, creating one of the UK’s largest centres for atrial fibrillation ablation and hosting several international live training courses.

Dr. Marshall’s clinical practice includes catheter ablation for all types of tachycardia, as well as cardiac catheterisation, angioplasty, and stent placement. He currently practises at The Harborne Hospital, The Droitwich Spa Hospital, and The Priory Hospital.

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Marshall is actively involved in publishing research in cardiac electrophysiology. Outside medicine, he enjoys classical music, fell walking, and scuba diving.

Because of a Heart Rythem Dissorder I have been under the care of Dr Howard Marshall for just over 20 years. Dr Marshall is extremely experienced and respected. In January I had a problem with a lead to my ICD but Dr Marshall ensured this was repaired without delay.

Dr Marshall is one of the most kind and caring doctors I have ever met. He is also a brilliant cardiologist, who helped to resolve severe arrhythmias in the late 2000s (these arrhythmias were caused by complications from the myocarditis I suffered in my late teens). Keeping my heart healthy is the most important thing to me - thanks to the expert care and support of Dr Mike Davies and Dr Marshall, I've been gifted nearly 40 years of a very active life that I never thought I'd have when all my heart problems started all those years ago. I am deeply grateful to Dr Marshall and the entire team.

My AVNRT Ablation has caused me problems for many years. The tablets prescribed gradually became less affective which is why I decided for the heart operation in the hope it would permanently solve the problem.

Thanks - I hope the ablation has now given you the permanent fix you were looking for.
