"Healing is best achieved when the art and science of medicine are bound, when body and spirit are probed together. The practice of medicine with a human face in our troubled times and sophisticated technology-driven era is possible and indeed more necessary than ever."

I received my medical degree from GMC Srinagar, Kashmir, India. I completed my residency in internal medicine at Drexel University College of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pa. I also completed a fellowship in cardiovascular disease and interventional cardiology at Aurora Health Care, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Milwaukee, Wis. I am board certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular disease and interventional cardiology.

I specialize in coronary angioplasty and stenting, endovascular repair of aneurysmal aortic disease, ASD/PFO closure and alcohol septal ablation.

My areas of interest include acute coronary syndrome/myocardial infarction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and valvular heart disease.

Outside of the clinic, I enjoy literature, poetry and music.
