About Dr Woldman
Dr Simon Woldman graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1989. He was first appointed a consultant cardiologist at The Ayr Hospital, before joining UCLH in 2006. He is an expert in the management of advanced heart failure in particular – and, with his team, has developed an interest in patients who have failed to respond to conventional therapy.
He was awarded the Andrew J. Hutton Medal and Prize in Surgery and the Asher Memorial Medal and Prize in Otolaryngology. Most of his training was within the West of Scotland, and he took up his first Consultant post in 2001 at Ayr Hospital. In 2002 he gained a doctorate (MD) from the University of Glasgow, before moving to the UCL Hospitals NHS (UCLH) Trust as Consultant Cardiologist.
The cardiology department at UCLH merged with that from St Bartholomew’s Hospital and the London Chest Hospital in 2015 to form Barts Heart Centre. Dr Woldman became Director in 2019.
Dr Woldman is the chairman of the North Central London Heart Failure task group and an expert in cardiac imaging. He is a past president of the British Nuclear Cardiology Society and is a Fellow of the European Society of Cardiology, the Royal College of Physicians, and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow.
