Warum ich es liebe in der Lehre tätig zu sein

Ich bin Oberarzt in der Kardiologe an den United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust im Vereinigten Königreich. Ich wurde als Fellow des Royal College of Physicians (London) sowie als Fellow der European Society of Cardiology gewählt. Nach meinem Medizinstudium in Oxford absolvierte ich meine Facharztausbildung in Nottingham und Leicester und verbrachte zudem einige Zeit in den USA.

Ich engagiere mich leidenschaftlich in der medizinischen Lehre und bin stellvertretender Direktor für medizinische Ausbildung sowie Programmleiter für die Grundlagen-Ausbildung in Lincolnshire. Mein besonderes Interesse gilt der nichtinvasiven kardialen Bildgebung, insbesondere der Echokardiografie und der kardialen Magnetresonanztomografie. Ebenso ist es mir ein Anliegen, anderen die beeindruckenden Möglichkeiten moderner bildgebender Verfahren zu vermitteln.
