Cardiology & CMR imaging.
Dr Izgi is a Consultant Cardiologist at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London, with specialist expertise in Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging — an advanced form of cardiac imaging used to assess heart structure, function, and tissue characteristics in detail.
He graduated from Hacėttepe University Medical School in 2000 and completed his cardiology training at Koşuyolu Heart Hospital in Istanbul in 2005. In 2010, he moved to the UK to undertake advanced training in CMR at the Royal Brompton Hospital, where he continues to work as a cardiology consultant.
Dr Izgi has extensive experience across the full clinical range of CMR applications and holds Level 3 certification in the field — the highest level recognised internationally. He is among the inaugural Fellows of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR), and previously served as an elected nucleus member of the European Society of Cardiology Working Group on Valvular Heart Disease.
Over the past 15 years he has played a significant role in training cardiology and radiology fellows from around the world in CMR. He has published widely in leading cardiology journals and was recognised with a Highly Commended award in the Cardiovascular Team of the Year category at the 2019 BMJ Awards.
At MHW Clinic, Dr Izgi sees patients for cardiology consultations, second opinions on cardiac imaging, valvular heart disease assessment, and referral planning for advanced imaging where indicated.

If you’re booking
What to expect.
Standard appointment
Most consultations are 30–45 minutes for an initial assessment, shorter for follow-ups. You’ll be seen in a single appointment, with bloods, ECG or other tests (if needed) usually done on the same visit.
Follow-up
Results from on-site tests are typically back within 24–48 hours via TDL (our laboratory partner). Follow-up consultations are scheduled to discuss results, refine treatment, or make onward referrals. With your consent, we write to your NHS GP so your record stays joined-up.
Onward referrals
Where your case needs a different specialist, Dr Izgi refers to a panel of trusted clinicians across London — matched to your specific need. We don’t take commission or referral fees from any external provider.
Insurance & self-pay
The clinic is recognised by major UK private medical insurers including Bupa, AXA Health, Vitality, Aviva, Cigna and WPA. Pre-authorisation is usually required. For self-pay patients, fees are confirmed before any test, procedure or report is started. Full pricing is on our price list.
