Dr. Nishant P. Shah
Overview
Treating life-changing illnesses, preventing heart disease in those at risk, and guiding patients to heart-healthy lifestyles is why I love being a cardiologist. I treat all types of cardiovascular conditions using state of the art facilities provided by Duke Health. I also have expertise in cardiovascular disease prevention and work with patients to further lower their risk for cardiac complications. I have a special interest in advanced cholesterol management, novel risk factor modifications, and mobile technologies to help optimize healthy lifestyles. Outside of work I am a huge sports fan and enjoy running, traveling, and spending time with my family.

Duke Cardiac Diagnostic Unit - Clinic 2K
I see patients who have heart disease, and I work to prevent them from having any bad consequences of that disease. I also see patients who are having symptoms and do diagnostic work to see what cardiovascular condition they may have to explain their symptoms. I also take care of patients who either have known or suspected genetic cardiovascular disorders. Our genetics clinic is one of the only adult cardiovascular clinics in the Southeast. We take care of patients who have a variety of cardiovascular genetic disorders or who have strong family histories of heart disease and want to come in for testing. Duke has a strong collaborative approach to patient care. We provide excellent care for patients who need routine care for more common medical disorders, but we also provide a high level of subspecialty care for those who may have rarer disorders.
