About Me
As the son of a machinist, I was drawn to mechanics and how things work from an early age. In a middle school biomedical course, I became fascinated with science and the mechanics of the heart, and quickly realized that the field of cardiology was my calling.
I went on to pursue a six-year combined bachelor of science/medical degree program, followed by a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship in cardiology at what was then Winthrop-University Hospital.
At NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island I am fortunate to work alongside a team of highly-trained specialists and staff to deliver a full range of cardiovascular services and care to patients who have cardiovascular diseases and their associated risk factors. Some of the conditions that I treat patients for include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and irregular heart rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation. I also treat people who have coronary artery disease and all forms of valve disease, as well as rheumatic heart disease, congestive heart failure, and hereditary diseases of the heart, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) or idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (IHSS).
When I work with patients, I take the time to address their individual concerns. I collaborate with them to design a treatment plan that suits their needs. I’m able to offer people many minimally invasive treatment options. I also treat patients at our Heart Failure Program, where we often collaborate with the NYU Langone Transplant Institute to provide heart transplantation.
I am committed to providing people with the best cardiovascular care in a warm and friendly environment. My goal is to equip patients with the tools and resources necessary to live long and productive lives.
