He is the founder and current director of Apex Vascular, where the team has been relentless in its efforts to optimize pedal approaches for chronic limb ischemia and non-healing wounds, establishing a robust vascular disorder program. His deep professional acumen is further validated by board certifications in echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, and other essential non-invasive modalities.
