Associate Professor Paul Calafiore is a cardiologist with a distinguished career focusing on valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies, pericardial disease, and adult congenital heart disease. He pursued his medical education at the University of Melbourne, earning his MBBS in 1976. Dr. Calafiore completed his cardiology training at The Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, further refining his expertise. He then undertook an Advanced Cardiology Fellowship in Echocardiography at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in the USA, a two-year program that provided specialized training in both adult and pediatric cardiology, with a particular emphasis on complex, surgically corrected, congenital heart conditions.
Upon his return to Australia, Dr. Calafiore was appointed as a Staff Specialist Cardiologist at The Austin and Repatriation General Hospital in Heidelberg, where he served as Director of Echocardiography. In this role, he was instrumental in introducing transoesophageal echocardiography to Victoria, a critical technology that facilitated the establishment of the mitral valve repair cardiac surgical program at the Austin Hospital in collaboration with Professor Brian Buxton. His work significantly advanced cardiac imaging capabilities in the region.
Since 1998, Associate Professor Calafiore has been the Medical Director of Cardiac Diagnostic Services at Epworth Healthcare, Richmond, where he currently leads the Echocardiography Services. He has also been involved with pediatric cardiology services at Epworth and contributed to the structural heart program, providing imaging for percutaneous intervention of congenital heart defects. Dr. Calafiore is a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (FRACP), the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand (CSANZ), and the American Society of Echocardiography. His dedication extends to education, involving the training of imaging fellows, cardiac sonographers, and Monash University medical students.
