    Cardiologist Snehal R. Patel, MD, joined Northwell Health in July 2025 as system director, heart failure and co-director of the Center for Heart Failure, Transplantation and Mechanical Circulatory Support at the Northwell Transplant Institute. He's also an associate professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.Dr. Patel was drawn to his specialty from the start, as he was attending medical school at Boston University. Heart failure was particularly compelling, because he found the pathophysiology of heart disease intriguing. Mainly, he says, a focus on heart failure seemed to offer the most promise for improving the lives of his patients.After both a residency and fellowship at St. Vincent's Catholic Medical Center in Manhattan, Dr. Patel did a fellowship at Montefiore Medical Center, where he became medical director of the heart transplant program. He decided to join Northwell for the same reason he chose advanced heart failure as a specialty area: because Northwell offered him an opportunity to impact a large number of patients, given Northwell's geographic footprint and extensive resources.What I appreciate here is the collaboration among specialties in caring for patients, he says. It's clear that the patient is always at the center of what we're doing, which is how it should be. Also, there's a vision for innovation and growth that will allow for expansion into how heart failure should be diagnosed and treated.The goal for Northwell is to continue to fortify our reputation as one of the premier heart failure programs in the country, he says, and that includes maintaining a standard of excellence in providing heart transplants. Dr. Patel has also done significant clinical research into the topic of heart transplantation, including post-transplant therapy, and he plans to continue that work at Northwell as a way to advance the field.In all these approaches, Dr. Patel focuses individual patients' needs. When I talk to patients and their families, I want them to feel like someone is taking responsibility for their health care journey, says Dr. Patel. They should leave my office feeling like I didn't just listen, but also that I care very deeply about what happens next for them. Dr. Patel is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Chagas Disease. He is also highly rated in 5 other conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Heart Failure, Pulmonary Edema, Cardiogenic Shock, Heart Transplant, and Endoscopy. Dr. Patel is board certified in American Board Of Internal Medicine/Cardiovascular Disease.

    What is the definition of Chagas Disease?

    Chagas disease is an infectious disease caused by the Trypanosoma cruzi parasite. The parasite is transmitted to animals and people by triatomine insects, also known as kissing bugs, which are mainly found in Latin America. If left untreated, Chagas disease is an inflammatory illness that can cause serious stomach and heart conditions.

    When should I see a Chagas Disease doctor near Manhasset, NY?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Chagas Disease doctor near Manhasset, NY?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Chagas Disease doctors near Manhasset, NY?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Chagas Disease doctors near Manhasset, NY?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Chagas Disease doctor near Manhasset, NY?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Chagas Disease doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Chagas Disease doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Chagas Disease doctor near Manhasset, NY?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Chagas Disease doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Chagas Disease doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Chagas Disease doctors near Manhasset, NY?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Chagas Disease doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find a Chagas Disease doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Chagas Disease doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
