Get To Know Me

Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I have 40 years of experience in treating a wide array of cardiac illnesses.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
I have always tried to develop a caring relationship with my patients. I never put a computer in between myself and my patient.

How do you spend your personal time when you're not caring for patients?
Professional and personal travel has always been a key part of my life. It has given me an incite into understanding people.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
I lost my father to heart disease when I was 12 years old and becoming a cardiologist has allowed me the opportunity to change the fate of others who have family members with similar problems.
