Biography
I specialize in the care of adults with congenital heart defects, women with heart disease who are pregnant or wish to become pregnant, and patients with some heritable cardiac or vascular conditions such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or heritable aortic aneurysm diseases (ex: Marfan syndrome, Loeys Dietz syndrome, vascular Ehler’s Danlos syndrome).
My patients can rely on me for optimized care that includes the most advanced evaluation and treatment strategies. I am committed to staying up-to date on innovations in my field to ensure I deliver the best care possible.
My role includes helping to educate the next generation of physicians. I am the program director of the Adult Congenital Heart Disease Fellowship Program and an assistant clinical professor of Internal Medicine in the Ohio State College of Medicine.
