Dr. Benjamin J. Conway
Overview
My favorite part of work is sitting down and talking with people about their disease. I put a lot of effort into explaining things in intuitive ways, in lay terms, about how these diseases work. Some are pretty difficult to explain. But I think it’s important that people understand their disease – what we’re doing when we make an intervention, what we’re trying to accomplish and frankly what we’re not able to accomplish sometimes. The explanations put people more in a position of feeling in control, and they actually do better with their disease when they understand it. What motivates me is that there are people out there confronting a disease that never rests. For all the dramatic things that make headlines in the world of cardiology, there is no substitute for the day-to-day interventions – diet, medication and activity – that really are most important.

Duke Cardiology Arringdon
I am an interventional cardiologist and researcher who has been at Duke for nearly 20 years. I enjoy being at Duke because of the “family” I get to work with every day. When we are able to make a patient feel better through teamwork; it’s a great feeling. I chose cardiology as my specialty because of the chance to make a difference in someone’s life in real time. When someone is having a heart attack, they are relying on you to come to their aid quickly. At that moment, I get to apply science to save a life, while learning more about what we can do to help improve people’s lives in the future. In that way, medicine also gives me the chance to learn from my patients and apply what I find to benefit the greater good. I find that whole process is exciting. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my school-aged children. Dr. Patel is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Stable Angina.

Central Carolina Cardiology
"My parents are from rural southwest Virginia. In 1949, they relocated to California for my father’s work as an academic researcher with NACA, later NASA. My brothers and I pursued scientific degrees. However, I felt that I could contribute more to our society by pursuing a technically-oriented career in cardiovascular medicine back in the rural South. Thus, in 1993, I brought stent technology to rural North Carolina. Most of my career has been dedicated to providing safe, thoughtful care in applying that technology. I also learned early on that good outcomes required simultaneous good general cardiovascular care. Now in my senior years, I practice general cardiovascular medicine, focusing on diagnosis, treatment, and education. The treatment mostly consists of advising on medications, diet, exercise, and referral for mechanical interventions when needed. In practice, I prefer the ""appropriate-but-least-intrusive action"" when pursuing optimal care.". Dr. Denardo is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Stable Angina.
