Professional statement
Dr Nick Linton is one of London's leading cardiologists. He specialises in atrial fibrillation, arrhythmia and hypertension (high blood pressure), alongside cardiomyopathy, heart attacks and heart murmurs. He privately practises at London Heart Practice, part of HCA Healthcare UK. His NHS base is Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.
He is dedicated to research and has a background in engineering as well as cardiology which has led to ground breaking developments in his field. He is highly qualified. Before his career in medicine, Dr Linton obtained an MA in engineering, economics and management from Oxford University, graduating with first class honours. He then studied medicine at King's College London, qualifying with a distinction in 2002.
He also was awarded membership of the Royal Colleges of Physicians (MRCP) and trained in cardiology at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (St Mary’s and Hammersmith Hospitals) and St Thomas’ Hospital. He completed a PhD at King's College London, investigating the mapping and ablation of organised atrial arrhythmias. Furthermore, he underwent training in France with Professors Haïssaguerre, Jaïs and Hocini at their leading electrophysiology unit in Bordeaux for a year.
Dr Linton has authored a significant amount of research articles and has pioneered a new method of arrhythmia mapping that is now incorporated into the leading commercial system and routinely used at Imperial. He is also the co-inventor of Ripple Mapping, a technique that is now used internationally for treating arrhythmia patients.
Dr Linton is committed to teaching and research, working as a senior clinical lecturer in Bioengineering at Imperial College London, and carrying out research on atrial and ventricular arrhythmias funded by the British Heart Foundation.
