Summary
- I am a full-time clinical cardiologist with added expertise in cardiac imaging. I have a special interest in valvular heart disease and multimodal cardiac imaging. I enjoy practicing in the community and developing longitudinal relationships with my patients. My patient care philosophy is patient-centered, scientifically-driven, cost-effective care. My grandmother was a WWII nurse who served in the Pacific. The lessons she shared with me about maintaining an unwavering focus on the patient's welfare define the physician I am today. I am currently Chief of Cardiology at MetroWest Medical Center in Framingham, MA, and an Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at Tufts University School of Medicine.
