Paul R. Roberts is a cardiologist based in Leederville, WA. His practice is at 191 Carr Place, Leederville, WA 6007, Australia. If you’ve been dealing with heart rhythm issues, chest symptoms, or episodes of fainting, he works with people to understand what’s going on and what can be done next.
Cardiac care can be confusing, especially when symptoms come and go. In many cases, Paul helps patients who have arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation and episodes of fast heart rates like paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. He also looks after people with heart block, and those who may have slower or irregular beats that affect how they feel day to day.
For some people, the problem isn’t just the rhythm on a monitor. It shows up as dizziness, fainting, or near-fainting. Paul’s work includes conditions such as cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia, as well as familial neurocardiogenic syncope. When fainting happens for no obvious reason, it can be scary, so he focuses on calm, practical steps to reduce risk and improve safety.
Paul also supports patients with heart failure, where the heart can’t pump as well as it should. Over time, this can affect energy, breathing, and day-to-day comfort. He also looks at complex medical situations that can overlap with heart health, such as chronic kidney disease, sepsis, and metabolic acidosis, where the body is under stress and the heart may be affected.
Some patients need device or procedure care. Paul works with pacemaker implantation and cardiac ablation, depending on what the heart testing shows. He also helps patients with conditions that are present from birth, including congenital heart disease, ventricular septal defects, and transposition of the great arteries. There are also rarer situations like dextrocardia and situs inversus, where the heart’s position is different to usual anatomy.
People can bring a wide range of concerns to a cardiology appointment. This might include sarcoidosis affecting the heart, episodes linked with hyperventilation, or symptoms connected with familial dysautonomia. Paul’s approach is to sort out the main issue first, then explain options in a way that makes sense.
For care involving pacemakers, ablation, fainting, or ongoing rhythm problems, you can ask for an appointment at his Leederville practice.
