Overview

As a clinical cardiologist, I see patients with a variety of heart conditions. The incredible progress in cardiovascular medications, procedure and surgeries has made the treatment of heart conditions very rewarding. However, from a therapeutic point of view, early lifestyle changes and preventive measures are among the most effective means of managing the burden of heart disease. I strongly believe in a need for detailed patient education in order for patients to make the right decision about their available treatment choices. Many cardiac treatments can be confusing and frightening; I like to take the time to speak with my patients and address their concerns. I enjoy helping my patients understand the value of complex medical procedures. I believe that close cooperation between the patient and doctor ensures the best possible quality of care.

My patients always come first. I value their trust in me, and I must uphold such trust. Before becoming a cardiologist, I spent five years working as an internist at Tulane University. I completed my cardiology training at the University of Iowa, where I also stayed on faculty for a year. I enjoy caring for patients with heart failure, coronary artery disease and valvular heart conditions. I have a particular interest in echocardiography, nuclear cardiology and, more recently, cardiac MRI and CT. I have a very sweet wife and two wonderful kids whom I enjoy spending time with.

My practice extends through a full range of cardiology services. I am especially interested in issues like syncope and coronary artery disease that can act as barriers to quality of life. It is a great privilege to practice as a cardiologist. Every day is a new chance to help people navigate the complex world that is their body. I hope that by communicating well, I can help simplify cardiac issues and help patients achieve the best outcomes possible. I understand when we perform tests and exams, they often seem very complex and even intimidating, and the language physicians use to discuss the results of these procedures can seem even more perplexing. I firmly believe it is my responsibility to help people understand the reason for these procedures and what the results mean. When we establish this understanding, we can best work together to establish a plan for moving forward. Dr. Smith is highly rated in 6 conditions, according to our data.
