Profile
I am a Consultant Cardiologist based in Bath and Bristol with a specialist interest in complex angioplasty. I work full time at the Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust. I trained at Nottingham University and spent 2 years as a Research Fellow before completing my registrar training in the Wessex region, and my Fellowships in Southampton and Bournemouth. I provide a contemporary evidence-based service, which is patient focused, to investigate and treat a broad range of cardiovascular problems. These include the investigations and management of chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations and fainting. My sub-specialty is coronary intervention – using wires, balloons and stents to treat narrowing’s within coronary arteries. I am a high volume operator and perform the majority of my cases through the radial artery, which is proven to be the safest route. I have an excellent outcomes and safety record with a complication rate well below those predicted in the British Cardiovascular Interventional Society (BCIS) statistical model (0.75% actual vs. 2.3% predicted). The most important person during any investigation or procedure is always the patient and I am strongly engaged with governance and quality improvement to ensure that teams work effectively to provide the best patient care possible. I am closely involved in the education and training of Junior Doctors and contribute to a number of National and International research trials and registries. I sat on the National BCIS Council as the Treasurer and was a member of the BCIS Training and Education Group for 6 years. Outside work, I am a keen sportsman and cycle and run regularly. Every year I set myself a sporting challenge. I have 5 children: Thomas, Alex, Emily, Poppy and Noah and spend as much time as possible supporting their busy social and sporting lives.

Excellent patient interaction, personable, and approachable. Explains in great detail but balanced the medical language with explanation in simple language and relatable examples.

Outstanding. I was very impressed by Dr McKenzie. He had obviously thoroughly reviewed my records and test results before my visit and listened carefully to my concerns. He is obviously very experienced in his field and quickly determined the best treatment plan for me. Within a few days of my consultation I recieved a letter (also copied to my Doctor and another Cardiologist that I had recently seen), outlining his observations and planned action to expediate my treatment. Within a few days of my visit I recieved a message arranging a pre op apointment to start my treatment. I highly reccommend Dr McKenzie.

Dr. McKenzie is a consumate professional and outstanding heart surgeon. The level and quality of care I have received has been excellent. From my early diagnosis of cardiovascular disease (angina/arteriolosclerosis), Dr. McKenzie provided clear advice and recommendations. This allowed me to make an informed, evidence-based decision on how to best manage my condition. Dr. McKenzie carried out my angioplasty and stent procedure. Beforehand, he fully explained the procedure, expected outcomes and risks. During the operation, he and his team were exceptional. They put me at ease, communicated clearly. Most importantly, Dr. McKenzie carried out the the operation with outstanding surgical expertise. His follow-up has been equally excellent: he explained and answered questions about my recovery and longer term prognosis. While my diagnosis was surprise and something of a shock, I have been enormously impressed by the support and expert treatement and care I have received from Dr. Mckenzie. I could not have expected or received any higher level of care.

Listened attentively and took on board my telling of my history, my aspirations and expectations. Explained clearly my options and gave clear advice. His enthusiasm for the work was infectious. Supported through the plan to successful outcome. Gave me complete confidence in the process and people. Would have appreciated direct email access, but secretarial service was faultless.

Dr McKenzie is very approachable and easy to talk to. He explained thoroughly the outcome of diagnostic tests. And no improvement necessary.

Saw Dr McKenzie for heart investigations after a stroke caused by atrial fibrillation. I was seen quickly and had a series of diagnostics by Dr McKenzie, and was referred for cardiac ablation treatment, which was successful. I found his approach thorough, to the point and direct and with an emphasis on getting things done - which worked well. Would not hesitate to recommend. Brilliant.
