About Dr Matthew E Faircloth

Dr Matt Faircloth is a highly experienced Consultant Cardiologist. He has a particular interest in ischaemic heart disease and interventional cardiology (angioplasty and stenting) and also treats all aspects of cardiology including hypertension, rhythm management, pacing and heart failure.

He has practising privileges at Clare Park Hospital, Parkside Frimley and St Anthony's Hospital. His NHS practices are at Frimley Park Hospital, Surrey and St George's Hospital in London.

Dr Faircloth is often described by his patients as being a good and careful listener, which is crucial in gaining a swift and accurate diagnosis. He is an experienced and highly capable interventional cardiologist and his externally reviewed performance figures confirm excellent success rates and an excellent safety record. He is trusted by his colleagues for his clinical and interventional skills.

Dr Faircloth runs his clinics as often as possible as "one-stop" clinics with tests being performed on the day to enable a swift and efficient diagnostic process. ECGs, echocardiograms, exercise tests and cardiac monitors can often be arranged at the time of the first visit.

He runs two to three clinics per week and with a very friendly and helpful PA (Deborah Squire) who will always try to accommodate patients as soon as possible.

Exceptional. I had an echocardiogram and ECG and then an appointment 15 minutes after to discuss the results. This all-in-one approach really reduced the anxiety of waiting for results, and saves time not having to return for an appointment to discuss results. Dr Faircloth is very thorough and has a very calming bedside manner, and is very warm and happy to answer questions. I went to see the Dr after a poor experience with a different cardiologist, and cannot recommend Dr Faircloth highly enough. His lifestyle advice has helped me reverse my diastolic dysfunction!

Matt Faircloth is delightful — welcoming, friendly, and the very definition of professionalism. My experience with Dr Faircloth was overwhelmingly positive, not least because my heart is still beating.............. He was reassuring throughout and clearly explained the results of my tests giving me confidence for the future. Happily, based on those findings, he believes my heart intends to keep up its duties for quite a few years yet — news that both my family and I were pleased to hear.

Dr Faircloth explained everything that I needed to know in a way that I fully understood. He did not rush me and answered all my questions, so I now know what my treatment entails and the way forward. He has also advised me on my medication and a plan for any future treatment. It was a stress free consultation.

Dr Faircloth appeared to grasp what I thought were a fairly complex set of interrelated issues and come to a logical conclusion. He was both kind and efficient despite the late hour. I await the outcome of being on the medication he recommended. Assuming that’s positive he’s an exemplar in the medical community.

My experience with Dr Faircloth was a genuine and very pleasant experience. He listened to my concerns with care and I did not feel rushed. I was extremely nervous waiting for my appointment as sometimes I feel I do not explain myself properly, however in the first instance I felt at east talking to Dr Faircloth. His approach was professional, calm, engaging and friendly. I genuinely left my initial appointment feeling safe in his expertise and knowledge. After my investigations he put my mind at rest and reassured me. I would recommend Dr Faircloth to anyone that requires his expertise in this field. I would also like to extend my thanks to his wonderful team: Deepa who made me feel comfortable and at ease during my echocardiogram, and Deborah, his secretary, who responded to my emails promptly and communicated very efficiently. Thank you to the entire team.

Dr Faircloth is an exceptional cardiologist. From my recent visit, it was clear how thorough, attentive, and genuinely caring he is with his patients. He took the time to really listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made sure I fully understood the plan going forward. I never once felt rushed during the appointment, and his calm and reassuring manner made a big difference. It’s rare to come across a doctor who combines such professionalism with genuine compassion and attention to detail. I feel very grateful to be under his care and would highly recommend Dr Faircloth to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and truly caring cardiologist.
