Dear Sir/Madam:

I am sincerely interested in the NON-INVASIVE Cardiologist’s position at your institution. I have enclosed my CV/Resume’ for your review.

As you will see, I have practiced as NON-INVASIVE & INVASIVE cardiologist in St Petersburg, Florida - 15 years with Suncoast Clinic & 4 years with Bayfront Health, and I’m currently working with Atlanticare Physicians group in NJ.

I am looking to relocate due to change in long-term goals of the system. I have been working at multiple Bay area hospitals- including St. Anthony’s, Bayfront, Ed-White, Largo Med, Northside, St Petersburg General, Palm of Pasadena and Tampa General. I have also been a part time Assistant Professor at the University of South Florida in Tampa and have been involved in teaching medical students, residents and cardiology fellows.

I have performed some aspects of Invasive Cardiology- including Cardiac Catheterizations, PCI, and selected peripheral procedures.

I NOW INTEND TO PURSUE MY SKILLS AS A NON-INVASIVE CARDIOLOGIST IN OUTPATIENT, AND/OR INPATIENT SETTINGS.

I, importantly, enjoy and perform all aspects of Non-invasive Cardiology- including Electrocardiography, Echocardiography, Trans-esophageal echocardiography (TEE), Stress Echocardiography, Stress Testing, Nuclear Cardiology, Cardiac & Coronary CT Angiography, Peripheral vascular ultrasound/Doppler studies, T-wave alternans studies, Holter & Arrhythmia monitoring, and Tilt Testing. In addition, I provide various aspects of clinical cardiac care for atherosclerotic heart disease (ASHD), heart failure (CHF), Arrhythmias, Peripheral arterial diseases (PAD), preventive cardiology, Education, lecturing, and active research.
