Dr Ben Pang is a cardiologist and electrophysiologist providing specialist care to people with irregular heart rhythms and other heart-related conditions. Dr Pang has clinical interests in arrhythmia ablation including supraventricular tachycardia, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation and ventricular ectopy/tachycardia and also implants pacemakers, implantable defibrillators and performs cardiac resynchronisation therapy for heart failure. Ben graduated from Monash University and then undertook a non-invasive imaging fellowship at St Vincent’s Hospital, Melbourne focusing on echocardiography. He’s subsequently completed a pacing fellowship and PhD at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, and a cardiac rhythm management fellowship at Monash Heart. He has recently returned from a 2-year intensive overseas cardiac rhythm management (pacing and electrophysiology) fellowship at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute, Canada.

Dr Arul Baradi is an Interventional Cardiologist with appointments at the Alfred, Epworth Richmond, and St Vincent’s Private Hospitals. He consults at Victoria Heart in Melbourne and several locations regionally. Arul’s clinical interests are the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of coronary and structural heart disease. Arul has recently returned from the United Kingdom after completing a two-year fellowship in complex coronary intervention at the Royal Papworth Hospital (affiliated with the University of Cambridge and the United Kingdom’s leading cardiac specialty hospital) and a one-year fellowship in adult structural cardiac intervention at the Royal Sussex County Hospital under Professor David Hildick-Smith (current president of the British Cardiac Intervention Society). Prior to this, he completed medical school at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and following internship and junior doctor years in Auckland moved to Melbourne where he completed physician and cardiology specialty training. Arul maintains an active role in research and teaching. He is a research fellow at the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit, the University of Cambridge, and a doctoral researcher at the University of Melbourne.

Dr Ojas Mehta is a highly trained consultant cardiologist and electrophysiologist. After graduating from the University of Melbourne, he undertook his physician training at the Royal Melbourne Hospital and subsequent cardiology training at Monash Health. He subspecialised in Cardiac Pacing and Electrophysiology with a Fellowship at The Alfred and Monash Hospitals. Thereafter, he completed an overseas Fellowship at the Royal Jubilee Hospital, British Columbia, Canada where he trained with leaders in the field of cardiac pacing and arrhythmia. Ojas brings with him novel approaches and procedural techniques to manage cardiac rhythm disorders. For implantable cardiac devices (ICD), he performs conduction system pacing, offers cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT), and implants leadless and subcutaneous devices in addition to conventional pacemakers or defibrillators. For cardiac ablation, he treats complex atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. He also performs venous alcohol ablation, a relatively new technique, to treat challenging cases of atrial fibrillation and premature ventricular complexes. Ojas strives to provide evidence-based care that is tailored to your personal circumstance and wishes. He sees a Doctor-Patient relationship as a partnership to empower patients and steer them into their best version of health. When it comes to chronic disease, he understands the support that a community can play. Prior to his international training, Ojas was a board member for a Victoria-wide not-for-profit organisation to support patients with cardiac disease.
