" I
enjoy the diversity in Cardiology,
beginning with preventive care, the
specialty allows me the
ability to
utilize
numerous diagnostic tests. Cardiology
also allows me, when needed, to perform
various procedures or surgeries, and
still continue to
follow my patients for many years
developing strong bonding relationships
between us.
As a cardiologist, the most important
advice I can give patients is to AVOID
ALL TOBACCO."
