About Dr Andrew Porter
Dr Andrew Porter is a Consultant Rheumatologist at Cleveland Clinic London, with an NHS practice at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. He offers expert care across the full range of general rheumatology. He sees patients with joint pain, stiffness and swelling, inflammatory arthritis, osteoporosis, and autoimmune connective tissue diseases. He also co-leads the specialist large vessel vasculitis clinic at Hammersmith Hospital, where he has particular expertise in giant cell arteritis (GCA), Takayasu arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). He places particular emphasis on early, accurate diagnosis, prompt treatment and minimising long-term steroid exposure.
He undertook his medical training at the University of Cambridge and University College London, graduating with distinction and being awarded an MA in Physiology, Development and Neuroscience. During his undergraduate and postgraduate training, he received several awards, including the Barbara Ansell Prize in Rheumatology. He has since worked at leading institutions across North-West London, developing extensive experience in the diagnosis and management of both common and complex rheumatological conditions.
In 2020, Dr Porter was awarded a Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Training Fellowship and went on to complete a PhD at Imperial College London, focusing on the molecular pathogenesis of vasculitis. He has an established academic and research portfolio, with multiple peer-reviewed publications in vasculitis and inflammatory disease and is a regular invited speaker at national and international meetings. He is actively involved in undergraduate and postgraduate medical education and currently serves as the Rheumatology Training Lead at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.
Dr Porter is committed to delivering compassionate, patient-centred and holistic care. He takes time to listen, explain and agree a personalised treatment plan with each patient.
