Summary

  • I completed my General Surgery training at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and then specialized in Cardiothoracic Surgery at Columbia University Medical Center. Following his fellowship, I completed advanced training in Heart Failure and Heart/Lung Transplant Surgery at Columbia University and joined the faculty at New York/Presbyterian Hospital from January 2005 until November 2013. I was then recruited to lead the Center for Aortic Disease at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York, where he was promoted to the rank of Associate Professor of Cardiovascular Surgery. Additionally, I served as the Medical Director for Mount Sinai International. In that role, I consulted throughout the world in cardiovascular programmatic development. Searching for an opportunity to make a more global impact, I moved to Miami and became the Medical Director and Chief of Cardiac Surgery at HCA Healthcare East Florida Division, where I am committed to creating a destination for cardiovascular disease in Miami to impact Latin America and the Carribean.

    My sub-specialty in in Aortic Surgery and transcatheter valves, has generated over 50 manuscripts in peer-reviewed journals. I am a peer reviewer for the Annals of Thoracic Surgery, BMJ, and JTCVS and was a site-principal investigator of many seminal clinical TAVR trials including PARTNER I, II, SURTAVI, and SENTINAL. I recently graduated in the inaugural class of t Surgical Leadership Program at Harvard Medical School.

    I have operated and/or lectured on six continents in 21 countries. I have been honored in Castle Connelly’s Best Doctors in America and New York Magazines’ Best Thoracic Surgeon’s list for the past eleven consecutive years and is a member of the American Association of Thoracic Surgeons, Society of Thoracic Surgeons, American College of Surgeons, and American College of Cardiologists.

    I define myself primarily, as a teacher, which is greatly facilitated by being ambidextrous.
