Dr Paul Cervi

Frist degree in Medicine was in University of Dublin 1984, and trained to Registrar level till 1989, when I moved to the Specialist Training program in University College Hospital London. I was appointed Consultant haematologist in 1996 in Basildon Hospital, and transferred as head of dept to Southend Hospital in 2010 until 2025 - main employment. I became Clinical Director for Diagnostic and Therapeutic in Southend Hospital in 2015 and continued in this role till April 2018. I have a broad experience in all things haematological, but particular interests in lymphoma and myeloma and coagulation disorders and anaemias. I am a strong believer in listening to my patients, and advising treatments tailored to their needs. My research interests are in lymphoma, and I have a strong interest in developing biopsy devices - for bone marrow and lymph nodes.

I have 28 years broad experience as a Consultant haematologist, having trained on the University College London specialist training rotation and head of Haematology Dept in Southend University Hospitals NHS Trust 2010-2025- and former Clinical Director for Diagnostics and Therapeutics. I have a particular interest in Malignant Haematology - such as myeloma or lymphoma, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia, and myelodysplasia and also an interest in thrombosis management and general haematology. After 28 years as consultant haematologist in the NHS, I have now retired from this role (Apr 2025) , but retain a keen interest in seeing private patients, and still provide locum sessions to NHS.
