About

After graduating from the University of Texas, and completing my medical training in Houston, at Baylor College of Medicine, I came to Austin. I started private practice in 1993. I specialize in diagnosing, monitoring, and treating diseases or conditions of the heart and blood vessels and the cardiovascular system. These conditions include heart attacks, heart murmurs, coronary heart disease, valvular heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, arrhythmia, fainting, high cholesterol and hypertension. I also strongly believe in and practice preventative medicine, helping patients maintain a heart-healthy life.
