Overview

I am a cardiologist specializing in advanced heart failure and heart transplants. I see patients across the entire spectrum of heart failure, including early to late stages. In more advanced cases, I discuss the role of therapies, such as devices and heart transplants. My goal is to ensure that each patient receives optimal treatment for their condition. I provide a personalized approach to care and seek to understand the patient's unique story and journey. I enjoy answering questions about different treatment approaches and finding the right one for the patient. My passion for heart failure stems from excitement and appreciation for a growing number of effective treatment strategies in the field, and I look forward to discussing these with my patients. I am active in research, including clinical trials, and would be happy to discuss any opportunities to participate. In my free time, I enjoy getting to know the area, traveling, and spending time with my family.

I am a cardiologist who specializes in advanced heart failure and heart transplant. I always strive to take a fresh look at patients and see what treatments we can offer that they may have not had before. I spend about half of my time doing clinical research that focuses on the outcomes of patients with heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. We look for opportunities to improve care and new ways to treat heart disease. Our patients are the center of our universe and we look for the best ways possible to treat them. One of my favorite parts of my job is taking care of patients who think the road has ended and being able to offer them several new roads to improve their lives. Dr. Hernandez is highly rated in 23 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Heart Failure, Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF), Heart Attack, Thrombectomy, and Heart Transplant.

Cardio-oncology is a relatively new field that’s at the intersection of cardiology and oncology. It’s been emerging with the increased awareness of cardiovascular disease in patients who have either been treated for cancer or who are being treated with cancer agents that may potentially cause heart complications. When patients come in, I evaluate if they are at higher risk for developing heart disease or complications and intervene to help prevent any issues. By protecting the heart, it allows us to treat our patients’ cancers as aggressively as possible. I also like to educate patients. This is based on my own experience with physicians. Instructions didn’t resonate with me without an explanation. Understanding gave me more buy-in. Now, when I see patients, I try to spend as much time as possible explaining the issues and find that at times even illustrating with pictures can help make things clearer. I think it helps patients to understand what is going on and feel more invested in their care. Dr. Khouri is highly rated in 17 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Cardiac Amyloidosis, Heart Failure, Primary Localized Cutaneous Amyloidosis, Cardiac Ablation, and Orchiectomy.
