I'm based in Mid Devon, does anyone have a recommendation of a good EP who I can see privately.For the next month I'm on a training course in Gloucestershire so even around that area.

Thanks

what part of SW? I lived near Exeter & the EP team there led by Matthew Lovell were all excellent - part of the Prof Schilling clinic originally.

Hi I'm just up the road near Cullompton.

I will see if I can get a number for him.

Thanks

He is lovely - he did my PM revision, very skilled.

I’ve never had a face to face app with him, only phone appointment! Always see someone else if I go into hospital! Sounds very nice tho!

2 EP’s I think - Matthew Lovell & Stephen Podd - can normally get in to see them within 2-3 weeks privately, if needed

If via NHS about an 18 month wait.

Best of luck

HiI am under Matthee Lovell who works at the RD & E in Exeter. He is private at the Nuffield Exeter. Also Dr Pod is at the Nuffield Exeter. I have also been treated by him. Both are Eps' and cardiologists. . They came down from London and are very experienced. Good luck.

Hi Chris 45558, The EP who I have been with since being diagnosed, is at the Spire Hospital

on the Downs Bristol.

She is brilliant in my opinion, Ashley Nesbit, if you go onto the Spire Bristol website you can read all about her

Best of luck

Dave

Hi Chris, I’m in Exmouth. I had 2 private consultations with Mathew Lovell and was fortunate to have him do my ablation (on NHS) 8 months ago. Good luck.

I cannot believe you are in Exmouth! We moved from there 2 years ago but lived there for 15 years. Today we are down in Exeter for business, then to Sidmouth but down again at the end of the month. I’ll PM you.

I emailed Dr Matthew Lovells secretary and he charges £345 for a 45 minute consultation. 😱

I also have to have a referral from my GP.
