About Me
I became a cardiologist because the work reflects my various interests and allows me to help others through clinical care and research.
I see patients who have various cardiovascular conditions, such as heart failure, coronary artery disease, arrhythmia or irregular heartbeat, and lipid and metabolic disorders. In addition, I provide care to prevent cardiovascular disease. Some of the procedures I perform include nuclear cardiac imaging, stress testing, echocardiography, and cardiac catheterization.
My colleagues and I provide expert cardiovascular care that emphasizes the application of the science of medicine in a patient-centered environment. I always personalize treatment to meet each patient’s goals. Providing care at a teaching institution requires that I remain at the forefront of medical knowledge and translate the latest research findings to advance clinical practice.
I have participated as a site investigator for more than 20 clinical trials addressing acute coronary syndromes, or conditions that suddenly reduce blood flow to the heart. In addition, I have studied the clinical relevance of inflammatory biomarkers associated with these conditions. My research has also brought mechanistic insight into the disruption of normal cholesterol changes that occurs in diabetes, a pro-inflammatory condition that is associated with increased cardiovascular risk.
Further illustrating my dedication to this specialty, I am a member of the American College of Cardiology, the American Heart Association, the American Federation for Medical Research, and the New York Academy of Sciences. I have also been listed in Castle Connolly’s “Top Doctors†series for the New York metro area.
