Cardiac cath lab coming soon to West Mid

21 July 2016

We are developing a new cardiac diagnostic and interventional service to be based at West Middlesex University Hospital. This new service will bring a number of benefits to patients, as well as their family and friends, who will no longer need to travel further to other hospitals for diagnosis and treatment.

We are developing a new cardiac diagnostic and interventional service to be based at  West Middlesex University Hospital. This new service will bring a number of benefits to patients, as well as their family and friends, who will no longer need to travel further to other hospitals for diagnosis and treatment.

The first phase of the new service—providing cardiac diagnostic tests—will open in late September this year with the second phase—bringing a full cardiac interventional treatment service—will be up and running by early 2017.

This investment in cardiac services helps meet a key health need within the local population and will provide better outcomes and experience for patients. We will be expanding our clinical team, recruiting a number of specialist staff to help run the new service, bringing exciting opportunities for career development.
