The care my husband received under Dr Wilkinson was exceptional.
His calm, reassuring manner made a very worrying situation so much easier.
The procedure to correct the problem was performed quickly and amazingly pain free with an immediate improvement, so much so we were able to enjoy a holiday abroad only days later.
Our sincere thanks to this wonderful, kind and professional Doctor, a real asset to Southampton.

The treatment and care that I received from Dr Wilkinson was superb. Everything was explained to me and Dr Wilkinson listened to my concerns and involved me in decisions. He obviously does his absolute best for his patients and is full of enthusiasm for his very up-to - date research. I felt that he cared.
And, to my wonderful surprise, I was called in exactly on time for my appointments.
All in all I would say that Dr Wilkinson is a first - class practitioner.
Dr Wilkinson, thank you very much.

I felt that I was listened to carefully and my symptoms explored throughly .
I was reassured by the clear explanations given to me and further reassurance given by further exploration 'just to make sure' .
Dr. Wilkinson was 'businesslike' but with a calm, friendly, confident manner.
I left the consultation feeling I was 'in good 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.
