Dr Rajdeep Khattar qualified at the University of Southampton Medical School, before his specialist training in cardiology in North West London.

This included three years of clinical research in the fields of:

• cardiovascular imaging

This was followed by comprehensive training in both advanced echocardiography and percutaneous coronary intervention.

He joined Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust from Manchester Heart Centre. He is a consultant cardiologist and is also an honorary clinical senior lecturer at the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London.

It is important that HCA is transparent about our relationship with those doctors who provide us with clinical guidance on delivering the best possible care to patients and operating our hospitals safely and efficiently. We set out here some of the ways in which we work together and the amount we pay this doctor for such services.
