In July 2018 I had ventricular tachyardia, which means the heart races and is a dangerous event. I was admitted into my local hospital by paramedics. I was subsequently transferred to St Bartholomew's hospital, London where my consultant was Dr. Vivienne Ezzat. I had previously been to another London hospital where the consultant explained I would have to undergo surgery where my chest cavity would have to opened to facilitate the implant of an ICD. This left me extremely nervous about my forthcoming treatment. When I met Dr. Vivienne Ezzat she explained the procedure to me along with the risks. However, her approach left me feeling more relaxed about the procedure. During the operating procedure Dr. Ezzat thought she could do the necessary job without the need to open my chest cavity. When I regained consciousness I thought "wow" as the procedure had been carried out without the major surgery anticipated. Thank you Dr. Ezzat. I would not hesitate in recommending Dr. Ezzat to anyone having to undergo a similar procedure to myself
