I had never previously met Dr Wilkinson, but I was immediately put at ease by his friendly welcome. He was professional and business like which put me at ease. At all times I felt that I was listened to and any explanation was put to me in a jargon free and understandable manner which I appreciated Many thanks to Dr Wilkinson for a worthwhile,pleasant and helpful consult

I saw Dr Wilkinson regarding a slightly enlarged aorta. He listened carefully to my description of the incident that led to the investigation and was clearly interested in understanding my case. He carried out the consultation with full attention and good humour. Once he had all the facts he was clear and reassuring about the outcome of investigations; I was obviously in safe hands.

Profile

Dr James Richard Wilkinson is a Consultant Interventional Cardiologist (heart specialist) based at Southampton and Lymington. He previously did procedure lists at Salisbury (2011-2014).

His particular area of expertise is Coronary Intervention. He regularly treats heart attack patients as well as more stable patients. This involves fixing the arteries that supply your heart with small balloons and metal scaffolds called 'stents'. He specialises in doing this through the artery in the wrist (radial artery) as it is safer and more comfortable for patients. He has a particular interest in opening arteries that have been blocked a long time (chronic total occlusions). He also has a specialist interest in a specialist procedure to treat high blood pressure (called renal denervation) and has set up this new service in Southampton. He also inserts pacemakers and does angiograms.

In addition to his procedure lists he also see's patients in clinic for evaluation of any symptoms that could be due to heart disease such as: breathlessness, chest pain, palpitations and blackouts. He is particularly interested in angina and new procedures to help this. He participates in a busy on-call rota for Southampton's heart attack service and does ward rounds. A majority of his work is NHS but he does see some patients privately at Southampton and Lymington. He participates in local research and education on a national level.
