"I am excited to practice in an area where we can bring cardiac care to patients in rural areas. I enjoy outpatient care and doing non-invasive diagnostic evaluations. I am very appreciative of the support and commitment of Sanger Clinic has made to the care of the population in the Boone area."
Sanjeev K. Gulati, MD
"In joining The Sanger Clinic, I was looking for a medical organization that provides the highest level of care, while maintaining exemplary ethical standards. The Sanger Clinic has the depth and diversity of a major academic cardiovascular center while still maintaining the ever-important doctor-patient relationship. I hope to be able to provide further expertise in the area of heart failure/transplantation to an already strong division of the clinic."
Michael J. Rinaldi, MD
"The Sanger Clinic has a national reputation for excellence in cardiovascular care. I have had the privilege of training under some of the leaders in the fields of cardiology and vascular medicine. By joining The Sanger Clinic, I have the opportunity to continue to work with some of the best cardiac and vascular specialists in the country. One of the strengths of The Sanger Clinic is its partnership of cardiac and vascular surgeons with cardiologists and vascular medicine specialists. This allows a coordination of care through a team approach that is unparalleled and works to the ultimate benefit of the patient. I believe that my specific training in vascular medicine, as well as cardiology, will work to further these ties and to help keep the Clinic's patients on the cutting edge of cardiovascular care."
