About Dr Michael Koa-Wing

Dr Michael Koa-Wing, Lead Consultant Cardiologist, currently works at West Herts Hospitals NHS Trust and Imperial College Healthcare in London. He is very experienced in treating and managing all aspects of general cardiology, including chest pain, heart failure, loss of consciousness, palpitations, heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), and implantable cardiac devices. He has a keen interest in the implantation of a wide range of medical devices including pacemakers, loop recorders, left atrial appendage occluders, defibrillators, and cardiac resynchronisation devices. He can also offer patients several procedures including cardioversions and catheter ablation (supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia).

Dr Koa-Wing qualified from his foundation training from Guys', King's and St. Thomas' Medical Schools with distinctions, before undertaking his postgraduate training at St. Mary's and Hammersmith Hospitals in London. During his training years, he studied abroad at Brigham & Women's Hospital associated with Harvard Medical School to further develop his skills. He also undertook a research degree focusing on cardiac electrophysiology, which later resulted in a PhD being awarded to him by Imperial College London. His research results on ventricular tachycardia ablation in addition to the development of a 3D mapping system for ablation of complex arrhythmias went on to be trialled in a multicentre clinical trial and is now in clinical use worldwide.

Dr Koa-Wing was later made a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and holds several professional memberships including the British Cardiac Society, the European Society of Cardiology and the British Heart Rhythm Society. He is also an active teacher, holding the position of Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer at Imperial College, London.

Dr Koa-Wing takes time to listen carefully and then explain what is happening in the heart, where the issue is, in clear terms which are easy to understand. This was my last appointment with him and the whole experience has been really good. Thorough tests, really good communication during treatment, and reassuring in manner,, which is what is needed when you're so poorly. This appointment was no different. Even though I'm recovered, the care and communication was just as good.

I was originally treated by D Koa-wing on the NHS on several occasions including for an ablation. I have recommended him to others and recently sought him out for advice concerning irregular heart rhythm. I found him, as ever, superb in every way. He is approachable, clear, listens, is evidently abreast of new developments in his field, frank about the uncertainties and I trust his skill and judge completely

Dr KW is simply excellent. He has a very calm manner and at my initial consultation clearly explained what my alternatives were and what my procedure would involve. His depth of knowledge and concern for the patient is very evident. In follow up consultations he fully explained the results, future likely outcomes and comprehensively addressed all my questions. He is very responsive , balanced and pragmatic and I have no hesitation in recommending him. He was recommended to me and I am very thankful that he was. Thank you Dr KW for everything you have done for me - I am very grateful.
