Dr. Aarthi Madhana Kumar views the patient-physician relationship as a partnership. She understands that a cardiac diagnosis can be stressful, so she makes sure patients have all their questions answered and know what to expect next. She believes patient education is key to helping individuals take an active role in their care and achieve the best outcomes.

Dr. Madhana Kumar is particularly interested in valvular heart disease and advanced echocardiography. She is passionate about preventative cardiology because of its power to prevent debilitating cardiac events.
