Biography
As a general cardiologist, I treat patients with coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, valvular disease and heart failure. I perform non-invasive diagnostic procedures including nuclear stress tests, echocardiograms and transesophageal echocardiograms (TEE). I like to engage with patients and provide extensive details concerning their treatment, and I am careful to explain why specific recommendations are made. Even as a specialist, I recommend regularly scheduled appointments during the course of treatment to ensure the patient is responding positively to his or her treatment plan.
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center devotes many resources to supporting the latest medical research. I enjoy working here because I’m able to offer my patients access to cutting-edge research and the highest quality care available. Ohio State also gives me the opportunity to train the next generation of cardiovascular physicians. I enjoy working with our residents, and especially our cardiology fellows.
I have a background in music, so my husband and I are very active in the music and arts community. We enjoy traveling as much as time allows, as well as cycling and walking our golden retriever, Scarlet.

Consulting and related relationships
