Overview

I’ve always been drawn to understanding how the heart works — and how advanced imaging can help us detect, treat, and even prevent disease. As a cardiologist with a focus on cardiac MRI and CT, I enjoy working with patients to find answers through detailed, non-invasive imaging. My clinical and research interests center on using imaging to improve diagnosis, guide therapy, and personalize care for patients with a wide range of heart conditions. I value building strong, respectful relationships with my patients and believe in listening carefully to understand their concerns and goals. My aim is to combine compassionate care with the latest tools and knowledge to help each person make informed decisions about their heart health.

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 highly rated in 22 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Peripheral Artery Disease, Atherosclerosis, Coronary Heart Disease, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), and Angioplasty. Dr. Patel is board certified in American Board Of Internal Med, Cardiovascular Disease and American Board Of Internal Med, Interventional Cardiology.
