Bio

What are some of the specific conditions you treat?

I treat all diseases of the heart including but not limited to atherosclerotic coronary heart disease, heart valve abnormalities, heart rhythm disorders, high blood pressure, disorders affecting the heart muscle, and heart failure.

Describe some of your professional highlights.

I became the Head of the Cardiology Department of Bikur Cholim Hospital in Riga, Latvia at age 28. I defended my doctoral thesis in clinical cardiology at age 30. I am certified in Cardiovascular Disease by the American Board of Internal Medicine. I am also certified by the American National Board of Echocardiography and the National Board of Nuclear Medicine.

What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?

Each patient is unique. Therefore, I obtain a thorough history from each patient and perform a physical examination which is the key to correct diagnosis and treatment. I explain the details of the diagnosis and treatment plan to the patient in simple terms and always answer any questions. I believe that the best results are achieved when the patient and the physician discuss the treatment plan together. I also stress the importance of prevention of heart disease.

What inspired you to become a doctor?

I decided to become a physician when I was a teenager. I was inspired by my father who was a physician and dedicated his life to helping people who needed medical care.
