About me
Dr Rohan Wijesurendra is a leading Consultant Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist specialising in the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders. He trained at the University of Cambridge (MA, MB BChir) and completed a DPhil (PhD) in Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, He offers expert assessment and treatments including catheter ablation, pacemaker and ICD implantation, and comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for general cardiology and expert arrhythmia management for conditions such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, palpitations and unexplained blackouts.
His advanced clinical training from Cambridge and Oxford and extensive research experience allows him to combine clinical excellence with a calm, patient-centred approach to help people understand their condition and return to full, active lives.
Dr Wijesurendra regularly cares for patients with:
* Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter
* Palpitations and fast/irregular heartbeat
* Fainting, blackouts or dizziness
* Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT)
* Other electrical rhythm abnormalities
He performs a wide range of treatments including catheter ablation, electrophysiology studies, and pacemaker/defibrillator implantation and troubleshooting / follow-up, while also offering non-invasive diagnostic testing such as ECGs, echocardiograms and ambulatory rhythm monitoring.
Dr Wijesurendra's approach to care
�I believe in clear explanations, evidence-based treatment, and giving patients the space to ask questions. Every treatment decision is personalised - whether that involves lifestyle changes, medication, or advanced procedures like ablation or device therapy. My goal is always to restore normal rhythm safely, reduce symptoms, and support long-term heart health.�
