Note: I am happy to answer general questions regarding the content of this website, but I cannot give clinical advice. Such requests will not be answered.
Dr. Richard Mansfield qualified from Leeds University Medical School in 1990 and after completing a number of junior hospital appointments in Leeds and Harrogate moved to the South West to commence specialist training in cardiology. He completed posts in Swindon and the Royal United Hospital, Bath, before spending 3 years in the Wessex Cardiothoracic Unit in Southampton. He went on to complete a 2 year British Heart Foundation Junior Research Fellowship at University College Hospital, London, studying the effects of the coronary arterial wall to balloon angioplasty and stenting. This research led to the award of MD with commendation.
In 2001 Dr. Mansfield was appointed Consultant Cardiologist at the Royal United Hospital in Bath. His main interest is in coronary angioplasty and the management of coronary artery disease. He has spent a period of time working in the Interventional Cardiology Department, St. Katharina's Hospital, Eindhoven in The Netherlands.
He was responsible for establishing the coronary angioplasty service at the Royal United Hospital, Bath, which commenced in March 2006. Aside from this he continues to pursue an interest in all aspects of general cardiology including valve disease, palpitation and arrhythmia, hypertension, cardiovascular screening and risk assessment. He carries out a number of other cardiac procedures including trans-oesophageal echocardiography and implantation of permanent pacemakers.
Dr Mansfield is actively engaged in the education of doctors training in cardiology and is the Training Programme Director for Cardiology in the Severn Deanery.
Whilst continuing to deliver a high quality NHS practice, Dr. Mansfield also manages a successful practice in the private sector based at the BMI Bath Clinic and CircleBath.
