Cardiovascular disease is a growing problem for many people, and I feel my expertise in interventional cardiology can help. Through the use of risk factor modification, medicine and minimally invasive procedures, arterial disease of the heart, extremities and neck can be treated to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke, or the loss of a limb. Many of the minimally invasive procedures I offer do not require general anesthesia, and patients often return home within 24 hours. These procedures are done at either St. Vincent Hospital or St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center.Patients with poor circulation can benefit from minimal invasive vascular techniques that restore blood flow to the legs and feet--lessening the chance of losing their limb. I have a special interest in complex coronary interventions and using the latest treatment tools, such as drug-coated stents which help previously clogged or closed vessels remain open longer and improve circulation to the tissues.I look forward to providing cardiac services to the residents of Northeast Wisconsin for many years to come.
