Biography

A/Prof Uwais Mohamed is a cardiologist and electrophysiologist who is highly experienced in the diagnosis and management of arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation (including catheter ablation techniques), supraventricular tachycardia and ventricular tachycardias, as well as implantable devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, monitoring devices and heart failure devices.

Wes started the Electrophysiology Laboratory at St Vincent’s Private Hospital in 2009, a centre that now has the capacity to undertake complex ablation. He’s on the cutting edge of device technology and was the first to insert a LINQ loop recorder and first leadless pacemaker in Victoria. He’s involved in a number of ongoing research clinical trials, affording his patients access to the latest medical developments.

Wes also mentors other electrophysiologists. His passion for teaching sees him lecture medical students through the University of Melbourne, and train future specialist fellows through the Royal College of Physicians.
