Welcome to our dedicated Paediatric Cardiology Clinic—a one-stop screening destination within The Vesey Private Hospital for children and young athletes requiring expert heart care. Led by Dr Tristan Ramcharan, Consultant Paediatric Cardiologist, our service focuses on delivering compassionate, thorough cardiac evaluations using advanced diagnostic tools and a family-centric approach.

Heart disease encompasses a wide range of conditions that can affect the heart. In children, these conditions can vary significantly, from minor issues with no symptoms that go undiagnosed to severe, potentially life-threatening problems apparent at birth.
