About me
I am a native of Tampa, Fla., but have lived most of my adult life in Atlanta. I earned my bachelor's and medical degree at Emory University in Atlanta. I then completed my internship and residency at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine at Chapel Hill, where I served as chief resident and was inducted into Alpha Omega Alpha. I completed my cardiology fellowship at Emory University, where I also served as the program's chief fellow.
I decided to pursue medicine because I love science and I enjoy people, and I feel truly grateful that I enjoy being a doctor. What I love most about my practice are the relationships with my patients and the close collaboration with colleagues to provide the best cardiovascular care possible.
About my practice
My clinical interests are in general cardiology, coronary artery disease, valve disease, heart failure and atrial fibrillation. I am also a specialist in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and in advanced cardiac imaging - cardiac CT and MRI.
I am board certified in internal medicine, cardiology and have special certifications in echocardiography and nuclear medicine. I am a fellow of the American College of Cardiology.
How I thrive
I enjoy spending time with my wife and two kids. In my spare time, I play golf, softball and I was a former pole vaulter on Emory University's track and field team.

The information in this online directory is updated periodically. The availability of physicians, hospitals, providers, and services may change. Before receiving care at a facility, select that location in our directory and verify the accepted plan types under "About this facility" to make sure it is available in your plan. If no plan types are listed, the facility is available for all plan types.
Medicare Members: To request a hard copy of Kaiser Permanente’s provider directory, please call our Member Services department at 1-800-232-4404, seven days a week, 8 a.m to 8 p.m. Kaiser Permanente will mail a hard copy of the provider directory to you within three (3) business days of your request. Kaiser Permanente may ask whether your request for a hard copy is a one-time request or if you are requesting to receive the provider directory in hard copy permanently.
If you request it, your request for hard copies of the provider directory remains until you leave Kaiser Permanente or request that hard copies be discontinued.
Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select providers and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
Kaiser Permanente uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business.
Information about a provider is provided to us by the provider or the provider's network, or is obtained as part of the credentialing process. Board certification may not reflect contracted services available from providers listed in our directory. If you have questions regarding this or about any of our providers, call us at 1-800-611-1811 (toll free). For the hearing and speech impaired: 1-888-865-5813 or 711 (TTY).
