About us

We provide a safe, friendly and comfortable environment for patients and their families at what we recognise is a vulnerable time in their lives. Our services are designed and delivered to suit the patient, never forgetting that each person is individual and has specific emotional as well as clinical needs.

Cambridge Heart Clinic provides a best-of-both-worlds approach: access to expert care from top UK cardiologists and the very highest standards of patient service, combined with the confidence of being in an NHS hospital with the vast array of specialist equipment and resources often lacking in a private hospital we deliver the highest standards of safety and quality without compromise.
