About me
Cardiology is among the most dynamic and exciting fields in medicine, and it’s a privilege to work with patients to improve their cardiovascular health. My goal is to provide the most current, cutting-edge care with an emphasis on the needs and preferences of the patient. I believe that outstanding care is grounded in clear communication, respect, and compassion. In my view, the art of cardiovascular medicine is in applying the wealth of clinical data in our field to achieve an excellent outcome for the individual patient.
