Dr Julian Boullin is a Consultant Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist working in the NHS at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital and Poole General Hospital. He sees private patients at the BMI Winterbourne in Dorchester and at the Nuffield Hospital and the Dorset Heart Clinic in Bournemouth.
Dr Boullin trained in cardiology in Kings College Hospital London, Dorchester, Bournemouth & Southampton. His first consultant post was at the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital where in 2011 he set up and then led the ablation service in Norfolk. During this period he undertook his more complex ablation at the Barts Heart Centre in London, the largest ablation centre in Europe. His personal audit data has demonstrated excellent patient care and these efforts have been recognised with awards for Clinical Excellence.
In February 2017 he relocated back to the south coast with his wife and 3 daughters. He practices in all areas of cardiology, and specialises in the management of heart rhythm problems. He has relished the challenges in ensuring people across Dorset receive the very best care for their heart problems,

Research
Dr Boullin has published widely and written a doctorate thesis studying the effects of nutrition in early life on the cardiovascular function in adult life, undertaking research at the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease centre, Southampton University.
Prior to moving back down to the south coast Dr Boullin established the ablation data collection in Norwich for submission to the National Audit using new software, achieving an exemplary ≥ 97% complete data. The data demonstrated a high quality service which contributed to the rise of ablation rates in East Anglia increasing to the highest region in the UK after 4 years.
More recently Dr Boullin has published on the use of pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation. He is currently involved in a large research trial looking at the use of a new pacing technique called conduction system pacing.
