Dr. Vishal Luther

I graduated in medicine from University College London, with Distinctions in all phases of medical school. I trained in Cardiology in the London North West Thames deanery, and subspecialised in heart rhythm management at the prestigious Hammersmith/St Mary’s Hospitals, where I achieved full certification as a specialist in cardiac electrophysiology (ECES) and cardiac devices (ECDS) by the European Heart Rhythm Association.

I have an international reputation as an expert in complex arrythmia ablation. I have a PhD (Imperial College London) and several first/senior author publications studying advanced 3D mapping techniques in myocardial scar and was recipient of the prestigious Heart Rhythm Society 2019 “Eric Prystowsky Fellow Clinical Researcher Award” for the highest scoring abstract involving this research. I am chief investigator for a multicentre UK randomised trial exploring optimal ablation strategies in patients with atrial scar. I am regularly invited to speak nationally on complex ablation and organised the advanced VT ablation programme for the 2023 “British Heart Rhythm Society” Annual Symposium”.

I am a keen educator. I have been faculty for the “Arrythmia Alliance” and “A-Fib Association” national Patient education days (since 2018), annually speaking to small and large patient groups. I am the founder of www.cardiowebinar.com, which offers a programme of ~100 free webinars mapped to the cardiology curriculum. The program was a finalist in the 2023 Health Service Journal Partnership award as the “best educational programme in the NHS”.
