Biography
Dr. Khaled Awad is a highly skilled and experienced interventional cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiology consultant, regarded as one of the best Electrophysiologists in Dubai. He is one of the few cardiologists to hold three board certifications simultaneously:
- German and European Board of Interventional Cardiology
- German and European Board of Electrophysiology
- German and European Board of Heart Device Therapy
Dr Awad is patient and institution-oriented with over 20 years of experience in reputable hospitals. He assists in implementing one of the newest technologies in pacemaker implantation using the physiologic conduction system at the left bundle branch, a technology conducted in only few centers worldwide. He is a high-end electrophysiologist as well, performing all types of ablations, mostly in near-zero fluoroscopy. He is well published and a peer reviewer of international and German medical journals. He is a professional member of the German Cardiac Society, the European Society of Cardiology, and the European Heart Rhythm Association.

Reviews
I have been suffering from AVNRT (Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia) for long time.. and started to become more irritating in the last two years. I met with Dr Khalid who have actually illustrated in detail how ablation procedure would look like and he ser all the expectations. I managed to get that procedure successfully done a week a go. However it was a complex one but Dr Khalid managed to do it in a very professional and impressive manner. I would like first to thank Dr Khalid for all his efforts, professionalism and transparency… secondly I would recommend Dr Khalid for anyone who is suffering from any tachycardia problems. – Google Reviews –
