Yorissa Padayachee
Internal Medicine Trainee
I am an internal medicine trainee in the North West London Deanery. I love cardiology and have an interest in syncope which was discovered on joining Dr Lim’s syncope clinics in January 2022. I have a research interest in cardiovascular health with a focus on syncope and heart failure. I have assisted with the website content creation. A fun fact: I enjoy nature and observing animals in the wild.
