Clinical Interests
I subspecialize in the diagnosis and management of structural heart disease. These arediseases that involve heart valves, walls, chambers and muscles. As co-director of the DuPageMedical Group Structural Heart Disease Service, I directly participate in a variety of theprocedures that we offer (TAVR, MitraClip, Watchman, ASD/VSD/PFO closure, perivalvular leakclosure, alcohol septal ablation). I also have expertise in cardiac imaging (cardiac CT, 3D echocardiography, nuclear cardiology). I serve as medical director of echocardiography for DuPage Medical Group.
Personal Interests
I enjoy spending time with my family, travelling, reading science fiction and studying history.
