About
Dr. Patel is a General and Interventional Cardiologist primarily based in the Santa Clarita area but with procedural and clinical responsibilities extending into the San Fernando Valley and West Los Angeles. He did a combined 7-year undergraduate/medical school program in his home state of Illinois before moving to California for the remainder of his training. He completed his Internal Medicine Residency at Stanford and Cardiology/Interventional Cardiology Fellowships at UCLA.
Dr. Patel strives to incorporate cutting edge evidence and technology into his daily practice, whether it be seeing patients in the office or doing procedures in the hospital setting. He is experienced in myriad problems under the Cardiovascular Disease umbrella, including dealing with heart failure, arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, and prevention. From a procedural standpoint, Dr. Patel is performing procedures for patients who need angioplasty or stenting, patients with cornary microvascular disease, and patients with congenital heart problems that need minimally invasive closure, such as PFO.
In his spare time he spends his time doing 3 things: traveling with his family, eating his way through LA, and playing/watching basketball. Ask him about any of these at your next visit!
