Dr Woo Jia Wei
I'm Dr. Woo Jia Wei, and I'm honored to serve as your dedicated Consultant Cardiologist and Advanced Cardiac Imaging Specialist at Sunrise Heart and Internal Medicine Clinic. Alongside my role as a Visiting Consultant Cardiologist at the National University Heart Centre Singapore, my mission is clear: to provide compassionate and expert care to each member of our community.
​
My journey in medicine has led me to specialize in advanced multimodality cardiac imaging, employing cutting-edge techniques like CT, MRI, and echocardiography to ensure precise diagnoses and successful treatments. But beyond the operating theater, my heart lies in preventive and community cardiology.
​
From training at renowned institutions like John Hopkins Hospital and the German Heart Centre to achieving diplomates in cardiac CT and cardiovascular MRI, I bring a wealth of expertise to our local healthcare landscape. My commitment to advancing heart care extends to sharing knowledge at international conferences and contributing to peer-reviewed journals.
​
It's a privilege to be entrusted with your heart health, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
