Profile

Dr Illes graduated in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1980, and trained in internal medicine at the University of Capetown from 1990 to 1993. He then undertook training in Cardiology at the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne as the Senior Registrar to Professor RWFC Campbell, the president of the British Heart Foundation. Dr Illes attained the FRACP in Australia in 1998. He has specific interests in pacemaker insertion and specialised pacing, such as biventricular systems for heart failure, defibrillator insertion, and all aspects of interventional and diagnostic cardiology.

Dr Illes pioneered cardiac resynchronisation therapy in Australia, was the first implanter of leadless pacemakers in Sydney and has been engaged to train other physicians in this technology. He is also the Principle Investigator in a number of other device trials in Australia. He is currently the director of the Coronary Care Unit at the Sydney Adventist Hospital.
