Professor Richard Schilling

Professor of cardiology and electrophysiology at St Bartholomew's Hospital

Treatments and procedures

Professor Schilling has a busy clinical practice specialising in interventional ablation for complex arrhythmia.

Research interests

Professor Schilling established the arrhythmia research program at St Bartholomew’s Hospital. Barts was one of the first centres to carry out randomised clinical trials investigating interventional treatment of cardiac arrhythmia and he developed and validated techniques for using novel technological applications like 3D image integration into mapping systems for the treatment of arrhythmia. These innovations have reduced radiation exposure and improved success rates for patients.

Leadership roles

He is the clinical director for strategy and commercial for Barts Hospital, and responsible for a team of strategic project leaders and the private practice team at Barts Hospital.

He is also the medical director for the Arrhythmia Alliance and the Atrial Fibrillation association, two international charities supporting patients with heart rhythm problems through education and influencing government policy.
