About Me
I'm a dedicated surgeon specializing in adult cardiac surgery, focusing on complex conditions such as coronary artery disease, valve disorders, aortic issues, and end-stage lung disease and heart failure requiring transplants. My approach is centered on delivering personalized care, tailored to the unique needs and aspirations of each patient. I firmly believe that the ordinary moments in our life can be someone else's desperate hours, driving my commitment to ensuring the best outcomes during these critical times.
Beyond work, I cherish family time, travel and my passion for sports.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2022, Dr. Choi has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
