Qualifications

I was in St Vincent’s Private Hospital yesterday for a heart angiogram with Prof. Shand and his team. Prof. Shand, Aine, Conor and Kate were absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. I have never felt so comfortable and thoroughly informed going through a medical procedure

Mr L.H 

Dr Shand, I want to thank you very much for taking me on for my heart operation recently. I appreciate the excellent care you gave me, and I know I am in good hands.

Mrs D.B

Professor Shand, a big thankyou from the bottom of my plugged heart. You and your staff were kind, caring, compassionate and very patient with me. One week on I feel like I am a different person.
