About Dr Smriti Saraf

Dr Smriti Saraf is a Consultant Cardiologist practising in London and West London, with experience in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease in both men and women. Her clinical practice covers a broad range of cardiology presentations, including chest pain, angina, palpitations, breathlessness, dizziness, syncope, hypertension, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and heart valve disease.

She has a particular interest in preventive cardiology and provides comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment, cardiac screening and long-term blood pressure management. Dr Saraf also focuses on women’s heart health, including cardiovascular risk assessment during perimenopause and menopause, when cardiac symptoms and risk profiles may change.

Dr Saraf obtained Membership of the Royal Colleges of Physicians (MRCP UK) in 2006 and completed a Doctorate of Medicine (MD) at the University of Hertfordshire. Her doctoral research examined acute coronary syndrome, with a focus on thrombotic and thrombolytic status and its relationship to clinical outcomes. She subsequently undertook advanced subspecialty training in interventional cardiology, including coronary intervention fellowships in Manchester and transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) training at Leeds General Infirmary.

In addition to clinical practice, Dr Saraf is involved in academic research, with peer-reviewed publications and presentations at national and international cardiology meetings. She also undertakes medico-legal work, providing independent cardiology reports, case reviews and expert witness opinions in matters relating to cardiovascular disease.

Insightful and encouraging. I’ve been dismissed regarding my POTS diagnosis and symptoms by various doctors over the past 20 years and she made it very clear that there are many resources that could help me feel better. Plus a good plan to check on some heart palpitations I was having.

Dr Saraf gave positive and clear explanations about my condition. I am a very anxious person and I felt reassured that it is possible to improve my heart failure, and will try hard to do so. Thankyou.

I'm delighted to be featured in The Telegraph, raising awareness of POTS, a condition that affects predominantly women and is frequently under-recognised. Through education, earlier diagnosis and better understanding, we can help more women receive the care they deserve. #POTS #WomensHealth #HeartHealth #Cardiology #TelegraphHealth #MenopauseAwareness
