She also provides ultrasound guidance for catheter-based procedures (in which the heart is accessed by threading a catheter – a flexible, 中空管(通过血管), 比如MitraClip, a minimally invasive treatment for leaky mitral valves.

▽'s research has focused on why some patients with valve disease progress to more severe stages and develop complications. Her investigations are based on genetic analysis and cardiac imaging techniques, such as echocardiography and cardiac MRI, and she collaborates with researchers across the U.S. and Europe, with funding from the National Institutes of Health.

    Dr. ▽ is great - thoughtful a good listener compassionate and obviously most knowledgeable. I would gladly have her as my regular cardiologist although she mentioned that she would refer me to someone else given my particular condition.

    I was told that my symptoms were not cardiovascular related as they were not able to recreate the symptoms I had during my visit with my PCP. I was also told that the pulse oximeter my PCP was was likely faulty. I reiterated multiple times my concern for these symptoms to worsen if I were to get pregnant as I am actively trying to get pregnant. There was a complete disregard for what I had to say even when I said my other providers are worried about the symptoms worsening with pregnancy. 两个博士. ▽ and the fellow said there shouldn't be an issue with me getting pregnant with my issues but that was not what I asked. The methods that were recommended to me by the fellow are methods that do not help me in anyway. I was told that if symptoms worsen to contact them again. 对不起?
