Dr Satnam Singh completed his general medicine training in various parts of England, Kent and Wales and specialist cardiology training from Edinburgh Heart Centre, which is a supra-regional hospital for all structural cardiac interventions. During his training, Dr Singh gained comprehensive expertise in complex coronary interventional procedures including primary angioplasty, left main angioplasty, bifurcation stenting, and CTOs and gained special expertise in the use of IVUS, OCT, FFR, laser and rotational atherectomy, and complex device implantation.
