- Service development
- As chair for the South West London Heart Failure Task Group Dr Anderson has worked with local PCTs to secure funding for for additional community heart failure nurses in Merton and Sutton and Wandsworth and is working with Kingston PCT to develop a new community heart failure team. Dr Anderson is also working with Wandsworth PCT to develop a community based cardiac rehabilitation service. Community heart failure nurse teams are already in place in Croydon and Lambeth.
Research interests: Cardiac resynchronisation therapy, pacemaker optimisation and non-invasive imaging of cardiomyopathies.
During Dr Anderson’s MD research at The Royal Brompton Hospital, she devised and developed a new Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique to measure iron loading in the heart. This research subsequently attracted a major project grant from the National Institutes of Health, America and Dr Anderson worked as the Lead Clinical Investigator on this project until taking up the post of Heart Failure Consultant for St George’s Hospital in 2005. It has recently been shown that the introduction of this technique has been associated with a greater than 70% reduction in death from cardiac iron overload in the UK thalassaemia population.

Coronary Artery Disease including angina and myocardial Infarction – hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cardiac pacing and other general cardiology issues
Professional profile
I am a young and enthusiastic cardiologist based at East Surrey Hospital, Surrey and Sussex Healthcare Trust and St. George's Hospital London. My primary interest is in the treatment of coronary heart disease and its prevention. I also have a special interest in the treatment of high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia and pacing.
I have completed an intensive postgraduate training in cardiovascular medicine in lead teaching hospitals, and have completed my coronary interventional fellowship obtaining a full range of experience in coronary artery stenting procedures. I am a fully trained and experienced cardiologist capable of performing both simple and complex coronary intervention procedures with a high safety profile.
I have ample cardiovascular research experience and have been an investigator for numerous national and international cardiovascular studies and trials, particularly relating management of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and coronary artery disease.
