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 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 highly rated in 22 conditions, according to our data.
