Overview of Dr. Gandhi
A member of the Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute physician team (see www.miamivascular.com), Dr. Gandhi specializes in minimally invasive treatments for peripheral vascular disease, cancer, and other diseases. He treats a diversity of medical conditions, including cancer (including hepatocellular carcinoma/liver cancer, liver metastases, kidney cancer, lung cancer and other cancers), peripheral arterial disease (PAD), thoracic aortic aneurysms, abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), carotid artery disease, uterine fibroids (embolization), deep venous thrombosis (DVT), compression fractures, varicoceles, and varicose veins.
Dr. Gandhi did his undergraduate studies at Northwestern University and Harvard University. He graduated summa cum laude (highest honors). He received his medical degree from Northwestern Medical School, where he also graduated with honors. Following medical school, he completed a surgical internship at Cornell Medical Center & New York Presbyterian Hospital. He completed his residency and fellowship at UCLA Medical Center. Currently, he is an associate clinical professor at University of South Florida School of Medicine and FIU College of Medicine. Dr. Gandhi regularly trains other physicians in various vascular/endovascular, interventional radiology, and interventional oncology techniques.
Because of his interest in discovering new therapies, Dr. Gandhi also dedicated an entire year to biomedical research at the renowned Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. He also served as a research fellow at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He has published his findings in several scientific journals.
Dr. Gandhi is the recipient of multiple awards, including the American College of Physicians Merit for Outstanding Performance in Medicine and award from the Society of Interventional Radiology.
