About me

Dr Andrew Barlow is a consultant physician specialising in respiratory medicine and general internal medicine, with extensive experience across a broad range of respiratory conditions. He sees patients privately at Spire Bushey Hospital and at The Wellington Hospital. He has been a consultant at West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust since May 2005.
Dr Barlow graduated with honours in medicine from Sheffield University Medical School in 1996, having previously completed a BSc(Hons) in Pharmacology at the Victoria University of Manchester. He later obtained a Master's degree from Imperial College London in 2006 and earned Fellowship of the Royal College of Physicians in 2009.
His clinical expertise includes complex airway disease, lung cancer, respiratory failure, infections, pleural disease, sleep medicine and respiratory allergies. Dr Barlow was among the first wave of UK consultants to deliver endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), establishing the first EBUS service within the Mount Vernon Cancer Network at Harefield Hospital before developing the service at West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. He is also an ERS (European Respiratory Society) certified Thoracic ultrasound practitioner.
Alongside his clinical work, Dr Barlow remains actively involved in research and service development. He presents regularly at international conferences and has authored and co-authored numerous publications spanning COVID-related research, asthma, lung cancer, EBUS and auto-immune disease.
His practice is notable for his focus on what patients need, tailoring treatment plans for each individual's unique situation.
