⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An outstanding cardiologist and a truly exceptional human being. From my first consultation on 13 October, Dr Francesco Lo Monaco was professional, thorough and incredibly efficient, arranging all my investigations within days. When my CT scan revealed a critical blockage in a major artery supplying my heart, he personally called me at 10:30 pm on Saturday night to explain the urgency and arranged for me to undergo a procedure on Harley Street the following day. His dedication, compassion and willingness to go above and beyond meant so much to me. The procedure was successful, and I am now recovering. I will always be grateful for the exceptional care he provided. His team was equally wonderful, professional and caring throughout. I cannot recommend Dr Lo Monaco highly enough. He is not only an excellent cardiologist but also a genuinely caring human being.

Dr Lo Monaco is an excellent doctor and cardiologist. Unlike many others, he listens to his patients, builds up a full picture of their symptoms and tries to pinpoint the cause so he can offer treatment. And he follows up to make sure the treatment is appropriate and effective. I can honestly say that until I consulted Dr Lo Monaco, I thought I would never get any treatment to help with disabling cardiac symptoms which have severely limited my daily activity. He is the only cardiologist who has provided a solution and given me hope that I will recover and get my life back. Thank you, Dr Lo Monaco!

I recently saw Dr. Francesco Lo Monaco after experiencing chest pain and worrying it could be heart-related. He was attentive, thorough and highly efficient, quickly reassuring me through the appropriate tests that my heart was healthy and the pain was not cardiac-related. I would highly recommend him. A special mention also goes to Alessandra, his assistant, who is an absolute gem. She was incredibly efficient, responsive and kept me informed throughout the entire process. An excellent team and a very reassuring experience from start to finish.

I went to see Dr Lo Monaco after having an unsatisfactory appointment with a different cardiologist, I cannot recommend Dr Lo Monaco enough, his attention to detail was unparalleled and he took the time to go into my history and ensure that he had every detail of my health covered, he was very very pleasant, calm, reassuring and made sure I had a comprehensive and detailed picture of my heart health, I cannot stress enough that no matter how unsure you are about your heart health, this is definitely the place to go, it was comforting to know that any worries I had, no matter how slight or great, they were all met with the same high level of attention, I feel so much more relaxed about my heart health after my appointments with Dr Lo Monaco, he is an absolute gentleman and a shining example of what the medical profession should be

I cannot recommend Dr. Francesco Lo Monaco highly enough. From my initial consultation regarding concerning chest pain, his level of care, professionalism, and expertise were truly outstanding. What immediately sets Dr. Lo Monaco apart is his incredible attention to detail and active listening. During our meeting, he asked all the right questions and took note of every single detail of my medical history and symptoms without missing a single thing. He made me feel completely heard and valued as a patient. When it came to investigating my chest pain, his approach was methodical, targeted, and refreshingly ethical. Rather than ordering a blanket of unnecessary procedures that would only drive up costs, he carefully selected the exact diagnostics needed for an accurate diagnosis. His care was seamless across both The Clementine Churchill Hospital and The National Heart Clinic on Harley Street, where I underwent an ECG, an angiogram, a 72-hour heart monitor, and stress tests. Throughout the testing process, Dr. Lo Monaco explained every procedure clearly, ensuring I felt completely at ease. He is deeply personal, deeply caring, and represents the absolute gold standard of what a consultant cardiologist should be: brilliant clinically, transparent with costs, and wholly dedicated to his patients' well-being. If you are looking for a top-tier heart specialist in London, look no further.

The most positive experience with Dr Francesco Lo Monaco and team. Punctual and flexible call hours, extremely astute and efficient learn health history, cover/test a very wide range of variables related, and confident/ making me confident in the diagnosis. All of which was accomplished within a short period (some of which was done remotely as well). Equally, Dr Francesco Lo Monaco‘s team of doctors and nurses were professional, knew exactly what they were doing and polite/welcoming the whole time. My most “heart” felt thank you to the Doc and team, and can only offer my highest recommendations!
