    I am Medical Director for Cardiology Clinical Services at San Francisco General Hospital. As inpatient Cardiology Service attending, I am responsible for individuals with acute coronary syndromes, heart failure exacerbations, heart rhythm disorders, endocarditis, and hypertensive emergencies. As inpatient Cardiology Consult attending, I coordinate complex care with Medicine, Family Medicine, Anesthesia, Neurology, Surgery Specialty, and Obstetrics Services. Echocardiography Laboratory and Cardiac Device Clinic duties encompass inpatients and outpatients. Cardiology Clinic and Anticoagulation Clinic duties include urgent evaluation prior to non-cardiac surgery and chronic management of diverse cardiovascular conditions. I respond to electronic requests (eConsults) for cardiology services from hospital areas, San Francisco Health Network clinics, and other healthcare facilities. I coordinate referrals to other UCSF campuses for cardiac electrophysiology, cardiothoracic surgery, and stress imaging procedures. I am Chair of the ZSFG Medication Error Reduction Plan Committee. I am Associate Medical Director for ZSFG Risk Management.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
