“I have several goals in my interactions with patients: My first goal is to partner with my patients in decision-making. To achieve this, I need to educate them regarding their treatment options, and I need to get to know them well enough to give them advice relevant to their circumstances. When I finish my initial consultation, all questions should be answered. My next goal is to perform a technically perfect operation in optimal circumstances. This minimizes the risk of complications, and maximizes the chances for an excellent surgical outcome. I use very few blood products in my procedures, and my preference is to use arteries as bypass conduits, because of better long-term outcomes. Lastly, I pay close attention to postoperative care to minimize both complications, and time in the hospital” expressed the doctor.
His acclaimed career in medicine began after he earned his medical degree from the Columbia University Roy and Diana Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1986. He then went on to perform his residency in surgery at Mount Sinai Morningside in 1991, and his fellowship in thoracic surgery at SUNY Health Science Center in Syracuse in 1993.
