McCollum Consultants Expert Dr Jagdeep Singh, Consultant Cardiologist, will be speaking at three of the UK’s leading cardiology and acute medicine meetings. His talks address two areas: how patients with slow heart rhythms are paced, and how data from wearable devices is used in clinical care.
Is left bundle branch area pacing the new standard of care?
At the Scottish Cardiac Society Annual Scientific Meeting, which ran from 1st-2nd October 2026, Dr Singh addressed whether left bundle branch area pacing has become the new standard of care.
This technique, a form of conduction system pacing, stimulates the heart through its natural electrical pathways rather than pacing the heart muscle directly. Clinicians increasingly adopt the technique as an alternative to conventional pacing approaches.
What does the latest European consensus mean for practice?
At Heart Rhythm Congress 2026 in Birmingham on 12th October, the UK’s largest meeting dedicated to heart rhythm disorders, Dr Singh will present the ten key take-home messages from the European Heart Rhythm Association’s 2025 consensus statement on conduction system pacing.
How are wearables changing cardiac monitoring?
At the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh’s 66th St Andrew’s Day Acute Medicine Symposium on 27th November 2026, Dr Singh will speak on cardiac monitoring and the use of wearables in practice.
Dr Singh is also delivering talks on artificial intelligence at closed professional meetings.

He now proctors NHS cardiologists in Scotland and England in the technique and trains consultant cardiologists internationally in pacemaker implantation.
Alongside his clinical practice, Dr Singh has undergone formal training in medicolegal expert witness report writing and courtroom skills, and holds certification from Bond Solon/University of Aberdeen as an expert witness.
