Stuart M. Grieve is a cardiologist working out of St George Private Hospital in Kogarah, NSW 2217. He looks after people with a wide range of heart-related problems, from everyday high cholesterol concerns to more serious issues that need hospital care.
In clinic and through admissions, he helps manage conditions like coronary heart disease, heart attack, and heart failure. He also sees people with valve problems, including aortic valve stenosis, and helps plan care for people who may need procedures such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). At times, people also come with issues involving the aorta, like aortic dissection, or with inherited and childhood heart conditions such as congenital heart disease.
Many appointments are about getting the right plan in place early, so symptoms are easier to manage. Over time, heart health can affect more than just the heart, including kidney health and recovery after major events. He takes a practical approach to making sure heart treatment fits around the rest of a person’s health, not just one test result.
Stuart also works with people who have had strokes or other changes in how the body is getting oxygen. In cases like this, it’s often not only about the heart diagnosis, but also about reducing risk and supporting safer recovery. People may be dealing with other health worries too, like mood changes after a tough time or long-lasting pain. In many cases, looking after the heart can help lift some of the overall pressure on the body and mind.
He understands that heart care can feel stressful. Some days patients just want clear next steps. At times, it helps to talk through options in plain language, including what to expect from treatment and follow-up. The goal is simple: help people feel informed, supported, and confident about what happens next.
Stuart stays up to date with current medical research and treatment guidelines so care reflects what’s available now. He also aims to keep decisions grounded and realistic for each person, whether someone needs ongoing management or assessment for a heart procedure.
