Dr Ryan Markham is an Interventional Cardiologist who specialises in the management of ischaemic and valvular heart disease. He performs coronary and structural interventions including; percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), high-risk PCI with Impella circulatory support, congenital heart defect repair, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), and transcatheter mitral and tricuspid therapies (TMTT).  

Dr Markham graduated with a Bachelor of Medicine Bachelor of Surgery, from the University of New South Wales, in Sydney. He completed advanced cardiology and interventional cardiology fellowship training, at The Prince Charles Hospital in Brisbane. During his fellowship, he completed a Master of Philosophy, through the University of Queensland, evaluating mitral annular geometry before and after transcatheter mitral valve therapy. 

Dr Markham continued his training with an interventional fellowship, focusing on structural intervention, at Stanford University in the United States. While at Stanford he was involved in several trials evaluating efficacy of novel TAVR and TMTT devices in high-risk patients with valvular heart disease. During this time, he was awarded a position at Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign and was involved in the development of medical devices for use in patients with critical cardiovascular disease, focussing on artificially intelligent software used to predict patient outcomes. 

Dr Markham is a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of Physicians. He has published extensively in the field of coronary and structural heart intervention in international peer reviewed journals, while also presenting regularly at international conferences.  

Dr Markham is a lecturer at the University of Queensland and is regularly involved in community teaching.
