ABOUT


My practice is based on the principle of excellence in heart health. My motto, "only accept the best for your heart health" drives all that we do. 

 

You will recieve the highest level of care through each step of your journey to cardiac health. 

 

I have been highly trained in complex coronary intervention. Not all interventional cardiologists are equally trained and you need to be aware that skill level does vary. Also, contrary to popular belief, not all coronary blockages need (or should) be stented.

 

Cardiolgists generally don't publish complication rates and hence, patients are often reliant on their GP to guide them to the best available specialist. So, what makes a good interventional cardiologist?

 

1. Highly skilled

2. Low complication rates. 

3. Puts the patient first.

4. Caring, empathic, unhurried. 

5. Accessible to patients for questions. 

6. Use of technologies such as FFR to minimise unnecessary stents. 

7. Holisitc approach to patient care. 

8. Commitment to continuing education to maintain the latest knowledge

 

My complication rates are among the lowest in the country. 

 

Only trust the very best for your heart health.

 

Dr Touma has particular expertise in stent biomechanics and design allowing him to choose precisely the right stent for your coronary blockage.

 

He has a keen interest in calcified lesion management and use of the rotablator. He also has a specific interest in treating coronary bypass graft disease and coronary artery disease in the very elderly.

 

Dr Touma is an accredited implanter of magmaris bioabsorbale magnesium coronary stents - stents that dissolve from the body without a trace left behind. These stents may offer major advantages in younger patients with coronary disease.
