MD, MSC, PHD, CCT, FRCP(LONDON), FHRS
Dr El Kadri obtained his medical degree from the University of Aleppo-Syria and then moved to the United Kingdom for postgraduate medical training. He completed his cardiology and electrophysiology training fellowships at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital in 2012. He then spent two years at the University of Michigan-USA attending an advanced catheter ablation and devices fellowship. After that, he practiced as a consultant cardiologist/electrophysiologist at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital until he moved to Abu Dhabi in 2016. 
Dr El Kadri worked as a cardiac electrophysiologist and Director of the electrophysiology service at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City (SKMC) and Director of cardiovascular research at Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City (SSMC), UAE. He currently works at Mediclinic in Abu Dhabi and Valiant Clinic Dubai.

Dr Moutaz El Kadri

He is accomplished academically with a master’s degree in Cardiology from the University of Brighton (2002) and a PhD in cellular electrophysiology from the University of Liverpool (2008). He holds several international heart rhythm certifications in electrophysiology and cardiac devices from societies such as the British Heart Rhythm Society (BHRS), The European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA), and the Heart Rhythm Society in the USA (IBHRE-HRS). He is a Fellow of the Royal College of physicians-London (FRCP) and a Fellow of the Heart Rhythm Society (FHRS). 
Dr El Kadri has a passion for research and education. He currently serves as an adjunct associate professor at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi and was a core faculty member for the ACGME-I accredited cardiology fellowship program at SKMC. His current research interests are translational and population-level cardiac research with several collaborations at the national and international level and multiple publications in leading medical journals. Dr El Kadri is a frequent lecturer on topics related to heart rhythm locally and abroad. In addition, he is on question writing panels for several international exams such as IBHRE and MRCP and is a reviewer for several prominent scientific journals.
He is an experienced electrophysiologist, having performed more than 2000 heart rhythm procedures with a particular interest in the mapping and ablation of complex atrial and ventricular arrhythmias and complex cardiac device management such as lead extractions and interventional biventricular pacing techniques and is a keen user of novel technologies such as leadless pacemakers, subcutaneous ICD, and left atrial appendage closure devices.

  • What is Lorem Ipsum?

    Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

  • Where does it come from?

    Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.

  • Where can I get some?

    There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text.
