Richard A. Norman is a cardiologist based in Kent Street, Perth, WA 6102. He works with people who need help with heart and blood vessel health, especially when cholesterol and circulation issues can affect things long term.
In his practice, Richard focuses on common and important heart risk problems. This includes high cholesterol and inherited forms of high cholesterol, like familial hypercholesterolaemia and familial combined hyperlipidaemia. He also looks after people with atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, where plaque build-up can narrow arteries and increase the chance of chest pain or heart events.
Richard also supports patients who have had heart procedures in the past, including heart bypass surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as stents. Over time, follow-up care matters. Managing medicines, blood pressure, and lifestyle steps can make a real difference to how people feel and how their health changes.
Another part of his work is caring for issues beyond the heart, like abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This can be something that needs careful monitoring, and sometimes more urgent action depending on size and growth. Richard works through the risks and helps patients understand what to watch for.
Many people who come in are managing more than one condition at once. At times that can include long-term neurological conditions, bowel issues, or other complex health problems that still link back to heart risk. Richard’s approach stays practical and grounded, with clear steps and careful checking, so the heart plan fits the rest of someone’s health.
He keeps the focus on everyday care: listening to what’s going on, explaining options in plain language, and making sure decisions are based on the person in front of him. When treatment changes, he helps people understand why, and what to do next.
