Overview
My approach to patient care is to treat everyone as if they were my family member. I like to learn about each patient’s values and together create the best treatment plan, whether that is open heart surgery, minimally invasive heart surgery, or transcatheter therapy. The idea of needing heart surgery can be daunting. It’s my job to guide each patient through the operation safely and get them back on their feet so they can enjoy their life with their loved ones.
His clinical expertise encompasses Aortic Valve Stenosis, Mitral Stenosis, Infective Endocarditis, Embolectomy, and Heart Bypass Surgery.
