Cardiovascular and cardiothoracic surgeons at Mayo Clinic are part of an integrated, multidisciplinary team of doctors and health care professionals who provide individualized care for each patient. Having all this expertise in a single place, focused on you, means that you're not just getting one opinion — your care is discussed among the team, your test results are available quickly and appointments are scheduled in coordination. Specialists work together to provide exactly the care you need.

My approach is based upon a philosophy I learned from a mentor during my Public Health training. He said if I listened to patients long enough, they would tell me exactly what the issue was. I respect the patient's perspective and focus on joint decision-making regarding treatment choices. I believe in taking time to educate patients and their families about possible causes of their illness and work to encourage habits and lifestyle changes that prevent worsening of an illness. There are many factors that affect health outcomes, so I work closely with other specialties to address issues beyond my scope as a cardiologist to ensure that patients have all the support they need. I always want patients to leave satisfied that their questions and concerns have been addressed.
