Dr. Shehzad M. Malik

Philosophy of care | I want to be your advocate through what can be a complex and frightening maze of health care and be there to guide and support you through the entire process. I treat my patients with comfort and care. | Why I entered medicine | I come from a family of doctors. My father was a pediatrician for 30 years. One of my brothers is a cardiologist and another brother is psychiatrist. Medicine has always been part of my life. | Community involvement | I donate time for continuing medical education for primary care providers and participate in social media outreach on heart-related health tips, including signs and symptoms of conditions such as arrhythmias and heart attacks.

Philosophy of care | I do my best to help you understand your condition and guide you to the best possible treatment decision. I treat you as I would treat myself or any member of my family. When you come to me, we work together and work to improve your quality of your life. | Why I entered medicine | My dad was an influence on my choice to become a doctor. When you’re able to take care of someone and make their lives better, when you’re able to make a connection and work through medical challenges together, that’s very rewarding. It’s satisfying to face a challenge and find success. | Personal interests | I like being outdoors and staying active.

Philosophy of care | I want to not only provide high quality care for you, but also develop a long-lasting relationship with you and your family. I always treat you as a human being with an ailment, not a patient number, room number or disease process. I always approach the management of my patients with the thought as to what I would want if this was my mother or father, or wife, or children. | Why I entered medicine | During my high school years, my sister fell ill with spinal cord cancer and spent the better part of 2.5 years hospitalized at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. We, being a small family, spent day and night in the hospital with her. It was during this time that I truly became enthralled with the field of medicine. Since I would sleep nights and spent my weekends there, the residents became my friends and began taking me on my rounds and teaching me. This provided the first exposure to practice of medicine. I then went on to medical school and obtained a residency at Columbia University. It was there that I met a wonderful teacher and mentor, Dr. Glenda Garvey, who in turn referred me to Dr. Mark Josephson to learn the field of electrophysiology. I could not have asked for a better education and owe my knowledge of electrophysiology to Dr. Josephson. | Community involvement | I have participated in several medical mission trips to South Africa, Haiti and Nicaragua. | Personal interests | I enjoy music and soccer.
