Clinical Focus

I see patients with a variety of cardiovascular diseases and to discuss preventive strategies prior to the development of cardiovascular diseases with a particular focus among young women. I am also interested in practicing precision or personalized medicine and am interested in how genetic testing can inform risk for patients who have a cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, and vascular disorders (e.g. aortic aneurysm).
