Dr Isabelle Roussin

Dr Isabelle Roussin is a highly experienced consultant cardiologist who sees patients at The Lister Hospital in London. She specialises in valvular heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathy, and post-partum cardiomyopathy. She also specialised in echocardiography and trained in CMR imaging. Dr Roussin covers all fields of general adult cardiology, including arrhythmia, hypertension and cardiovascular assessment for insurance purposes. She sees patients privately and via the NHS.

Dr Roussin provides a one-stop clinic for patients. She does her assessment with echo and stress echocardiogram for patients with cardiovascular risk factors or symptoms of ischemic heart disease. She trained in France in non-invasive cardiology, which included one year working as a cardiologist in a cardiac transplant team and a cardiothoracic surgical team, which gives her special insight into cardiac surgery.

Dr Roussin arrived in the UK twenty years ago and worked in different hospitals. She spent two years specialising in cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, and worked for five years in the echocardiography department at the Royal Brompton. She spent two years carrying out clinical research in cardiomyopathy induced chemotherapy.

Dr Roussin is also in the process of setting up a joint clinic with a leading gynaecologist, assessing women with cardiovascular disease, especially around the time of menopause. The clinic will focus on prevention, early assessment and treatment.
