Dr Nilesh Mehta is an interventional cardiologist with extensive experience in high-volume complex PCI and Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) procedures. He focuses exclusively on advanced coronary intervention at leading Melbourne private hospitals.
His training encompasses hybrid CTO approaches, rotational atherectomy, intravascular lithotripsy, and intravascular imaging. Patients often see Dr Mehta for a second opinion after being told their arteries are “too blocked” or “too calcified” for stents.
Approach to care
Dr Mehta believes complex coronary disease requires both technical expertise and clear communication. He reviews existing angiograms promptly, explains options in plain English, and works with each patient’s private health cover to minimise unexpected costs wherever possible.
