About

Professor Hunter is the director of arrhythmia research at St Bart's NHS and pioneers new treatments and technologies for the treatment of arrhythmias with a particular focus on catheter ablation of AF and atrial tachycardia. He is an elected Council Member of the UK British Heart Rhythm Society and speaks around the world on arrhythmias and their treatment. 

Professor Hunter sees any cardiac patients including those with symptoms of palpitations, breathlessness, chest pains or fainting (syncope). He provides care for patients with a variety of conditions but is a recognised international figure in the treatment of arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial tachycardia, SVT, ventricular ectopics (VE), ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation (VT or VF), heart block and bradycardia (slow heart rhythms).

Professor Hunter performs catheter ablation procedures for all arrhythmia including AF. He also implants, upgrades and extracts pacemakers, cardiac defibrillators (ICDs), biventricular pacemakers for heart failure, leadless pacemakers and implantable loop recorders (ILRs or Reveals).
