Dr Barman is kind and considerate. The explanation of my medical options were clear and concise and the surgery received has been transformative to my life. I am extremely grateful to him for giving me my old life back
I cannot recommend Dr Palash Barman highly enough. He fitted my pacemaker in January and demonstrated exceptional knowledge, skill and professionalism. He answered all my quest questions in detail and with patience. An outstanding and charming doctor in whom I have the utmost confidence.
Very clear, friendly and professional. Successful ablation - has made a great difference to my quality of life (especially cycling!)
This was the follow up having had a heart pacemaker fitted on 12 December 2025. All the test results indicate the implant is working well and I have had no further incidents of the previous problems. Dr Barman explained further technical aspects of the device regarding the operation of the device during the periods of atrial fibrillation. He is willing and able to give reassurance when a patient is concerned about any aspects of the procedure that has been performed.
Having had experience with several Cardiologists in the past, I was looking for someone who has the specialism in the electrical pulse activation within the heart. From his CV compared with the others, he appeared to me to be the best of the choices on offer in Bristol. Having made that selection I have no hesitation in confirming that he quickly identified the problem with my heart and recommended that I have a two lead Pacemaker fitted. Following his recommendation in just over a week the operation took place. He has a very friendly manner and took time to explain all aspects of the procedure he intended to follow and the risk factors involved. He appears as a person who is calm and reassuring and I was convinced he is totally reliable and someone I could trust.
What a lovely consultant. Very reassuring and easy to talk to.
A pleasant man in whom one feels total confidence. He arranged ecg test immediately to re-assure the patient and a follow up ultrasound heart scan is promised
