I am an interventional cardiologist with UBMD Cardiovascular Medicine. I see outpatients through the Great Lakes Cardiovascular ambulatory practice at the Williamsville Clinic, and I care for patients admitted to the Buffalo General Medical Center (BGMC) consultative service and BGMC’s Cardiac Care Unit (CCU). My interventional practice involves evaluating and caring for patients with coronary and structural heart diseases. I perform diagnostic coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary atherectomy, percutaneous mechanical hemodynamic support, cardiac biopsy, patent foramen ovale (PFO)/atrial spetal defect (ASD) closure, pulmonary embolism thrombectomy, AngioVac and transaortic valve replacement (TAVR).
I also have a specialized focus on evaluating and managing patients with peripheral vascular disease, including noninvasive vascular testing and endovascular interventions. I see patients at the Gates Vascular Institute (GVI) where I perform diagnostic peripheral angiography and interventions for peripheral arterial diseases. These procedures include lower extremity arterial atherectomy, angioplasty and stenting, renal and mesenteric artery revascularization and subclavian intervention.
I am active in research at the GVI by participating in a number clinical trials regarding coronary interventions, pulmonary embolism, AngioVac, and Structural Heart disease.
As a faculty member at the University at Buffalo, I teach and mentor residents and fellows during their hospital rotations.
