About Me

I have a passion to battle the #1 killer in America, which is cardiovascular disease.  I believe one of our biggest responsibilities in healthcare is to work to prevent such a heavy burden of cardiovascular disease. I enjoy spending time with patients and counseling them on the most healthy dietary habits and exercise strategies and offering the latest evidence-based treatment strategies to prevent and treat cardiovascular disease.

I earned my medical degree and completed a residency at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and I completed a fellowship at the Deborah Heart and Lung Center. I am board certified in cardiovascular medicine, echocardiography, nuclear medicine and lipidology, and I am a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology.

Outside of work, I enjoy my greatest blessing in life, my family.  I love spending time with my wife and 3 children, traveling with them, and simply laughing with them.  My family reminds me why it is so important for me to help my patients live a longer and healthier life, and be able to enjoy their own loved ones.

Have been under Dr. Patel's care for the past 7 years when I entered the St. Luke's hospital with a medical emergency of Viral Cardiomyopathy...that is when I met Dr. Patel ...and I attribute him for saving my life. My wife is an RN and she knew the severity of my situation and how things could have 'gone South' rapidly!!! The medications I am on have been supervised by Dr. Patel and have worked to keep my 'heart pumping' strongly with no further episodes of heart failure. Dr. Patel is the BEST as far as me and my family are concerned!!! Thank you
