Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is transforming cardiac care. Dr Iqbal Malik and Dr Ghada Mikhail are the early pioneers behind this procedure. They shared, “TAVI is a minimally invasive procedure which replaces a damaged heart valve without open-heart surgery, offering faster recovery and improved outcomes.
“It is an amazing technique. When it was first introduced, none of us imagined it would become so widely used. To date, we’ve now performed over 2,500 cases!
“Patients report breathing more easily, their chest tightness improves, and symptoms like light-headedness or fainting disappear.
“Untreated severe aortic stenosis can lead to sudden death and it has a worse prognosis compared to most cancers – therefore, early treatment is critical.”
Our nursing teams have been awarded Pathway to Excellence with Distinction – making Hammersmith the first hospital in Europe to achieve this level of recognition.
This international award recognises hospitals where nurses feel supported, valued and empowered to provide the best possible care.
Behind this achievement is 18 months of dedication and teamwork. Well done to everyone who made this possible 👏
This milestone builds on our wider journey across the Trust, following Charing Cross Hospital’s designation in July 2024 and ongoing work at St Mary’s Hospital.
Our annual Festival of Nursing and Midwifery, running from International Day of the Midwife (5 May) to International Nurses’ Day (12 May), gave us a chance to recognise the skill, compassion and dedication our teams bring to patients every day.
Here’s a look back at some special moments – including the presentation of DAISY Awards, which give patients, families and carers the opportunity to recognise and thank the nurses and midwives whose care has made a lasting difference.
Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make this week so meaningful 💙

Today, we’re proud to celebrate nurses everywhere – including Jyothimol, a critical care nurse whose journey has taken her from India to caring for patients in the NHS.
“Nursing is not just about bedside care or clinical tasks – it is about being there for people during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.
“My journey from India to the UK has shown me that nursing truly is a global profession, united by common values. Although we may come from different backgrounds, nurses everywhere share the same purpose – to care, to advocate, and to make a difference.”
Today, we say thank you to all our nurses, for everything you do ✨

Before her diagnosis, Sbba experienced subtle symptoms, including ongoing fatigue, mild bloating and needing to go to the toilet more often. These were initially thought to be linked to menopause or IBS, but Sbba felt something wasn’t right and pushed for further tests.
She had three operations with us. The first was to remove as much of the cancer as possible, but it had spread more than expected. After chemotherapy, she had a second operation, followed by a third when the cancer came back.
Reflecting on her care, Sbba said: “I’m so grateful to the staff and teams at Hammersmith who took such good care of me during each visit. I was treated with kindness and compassion at a time when I was at my lowest.
“Professor [pictured second photo] is an exceptionally gifted surgeon, and I feel incredibly fortunate that she performed all three of my surgeries. She saw more than just a patient with a diagnosis – she saw me as a person.
“It’s so important that women are aware of the signs and symptoms to look out for. Know what’s normal for you, and if something doesn’t feel right, get it checked. If you feel dismissed, persevere and have the confidence to ask for a second opinion. No one knows your body like you do – trust yourself.”
Thank you for sharing your story this #WorldOvarianCancerDay, Sbba 💙
The week aims to break down the stigma and taboo of talking about death and dying. We spoke to ICU nurse Meng about we are providing dignified end of life care at Charing Cross through the introduction of the Purple Butterfly.
The Purple Butterfly approach promotes early, honest, sensitive conversations and a multidisciplinary way of working. When staff see Purple Butterfly motifs, they know exactly what it means and spring into action.
Meng reflects that, “Purple Butterfly helps us focus on dignity, compassion and treating the person as an individual. It brings staff together to provide joined up, holistic care”.

She shared with us, “Heart failure affects more people in the UK than many cancers, yet it remains under-recognised, underdiagnosed, and too often diagnosed too late. During #HeartFailureAwarenessWeek (and beyond), we have an opportunity to challenge that. Because heart failure is not rare. It is not benign. And crucially, it is treatable.
“We still see patients presenting late, often in crisis, having lived with symptoms for months or even years – and 80% of patients are first diagnosed on admission to hospital.
“Breathlessness, fatigue and leg swelling are symptoms that are frequently dismissed as ageing, deconditioning, or other long-term conditions. By the time heart failure is recognised, patients are often already significantly unwell, which increases morbidity and mortality risk.
“This is not inevitable. The earlier we diagnose and treat heart failure, the better the outcomes.”
Call to action: Educate yourself on the signs and symptoms of heart failure.
Reflecting on her experience, Hema shared: “Each of my previous losses shaped this pregnancy. When we saw a positive test for the fifth time, there was a brief moment of joy, but it was quickly followed by anxiety and the question of how long it would last.
“From early on, I was closely monitored and never made to feel like I was overreacting or worrying too much. It wasn’t just the medical care that got me through, it was the kindness, reassurance and understanding from the teams, and the way I was treated as a person.
“Thank you doesn’t feel like enough. You were there during some of the most vulnerable moments of my life, and the care you showed has stayed with me. We will always be grateful for the role you played in helping us bring our baby into the world.
“It’s hard to put into words what it means to have Avi. There’s so much joy, alongside a quiet awareness of what it took to get here. We don’t take this for granted for a second.
“Pregnancy after loss isn’t a ‘normal’ pregnancy – it carries a weight that doesn’t just disappear. To anyone going through something similar, you’re not alone, and however you’re coping is valid.”
Thank you for sharing your story, Hema 💙
Dr Katherine Nixon is a translational cancer research scientist working in the Fotopoulou/Cunnea research group at our Trust. She’ll be taking on the marathon this Sunday to raise money for ’s Ovarian Care Fund, supporting vital care and research for patients.
She shared, “I’ve been passionate about ovarian cancer research since undertaking my PhD with the team in 2015. In 2017, I ran the Dublin marathon, raising money for the Ovarian Care Fund, and I’m very excited (and a bit nervous) to be doing the London Marathon this year.
“The funds raised will go directly into our research, examining how ovarian cancer behaves in different patients and developing novel testing platforms for the investigation of new targeted therapies. Improving patient outcomes is the goal of our work through a better understanding of this complex disease and translating this into personalised, precision treatments. “The support I’ve received has been amazing and really helps motivate me, so a massive thank you to everyone!”
Wishing Katherine, and everyone running, the very best of luck! 👏
