My father was a cardiologist, and I grew up in Ormond Beach, Florida rounding at the hospital with him after he'd pick me up after school. I knew from an early age that I didn't just want to go into medicine; I wanted to study and treat heart disease. I learned a lot from watching my dad. He built a strong rapport with his patients, and I strive to do the same. I treat every patient as if they're a member of my family. I'm honored to serve as director of the Coastal HVI Structural Heart Program for Novant Health. In addition, I'm chairman of the pharmacy and therapeutics committee at Novant Health New Hanover Regional Medical Center and a board member of the Coastal Heart and Vascular Institute. Clinical trials are an important research tool, and I've served as principal investigator on a trial investigating treatments for high-risk pulmonary embolism and was co-principal investigator for an investigation into treatment for acute decompensated heart failure. My family - including my wife and three children - and I have lived in the Wilmington area since 2004. I enjoy everything this area has to offer, including fishing, spending time on the water and playing golf. I also enjoy travel and reading historical nonfiction.
