Meet our team
Our focus at Baylor Scott & White Heart and Vascular Hospital is your care and comfort. Our heart care team is committed to providing you with quality, individualized treatment and compassionate care. We have great respect for each other's experience and training, work closely in a team environment and are sensitive to everyone's needs. It takes special people to create a place where you want to be treated. The collaboration and chemistry between our nurses, support staff and the physicians on our medical team is a high priority for us.
Our team is a multidisciplinary mix of specialists on our medical staff, along with nurses, pharmacists, social workers, and support and administrative members. Our culture is one of unity, where each person on our staff is an equal member of the team and is treated with the respect he or she deserves. We select each team member carefully for his or her passion, sensitivity, expertise, knowledge and patient focus. Our heart and vascular team members not only focus on your care but are involved in advancing the diagnoses and treatments of heart and vascular medicine through research and innovative technologies.
Please do not hesitate to contact any of us with questions or concerns.
