I think a good day at work is being able to come in and develop those great relationships with my patients. I think that's really my true passion of why I went into cardiology and went into heart failure, is that I really get to provide long-term care and see patients over and over again, build relationships with those patients, understand their story, understand why they're coming to see me. And to help them parse down the entire hospital system, all the science and treatments that are out there and identify what are the aspects of medicine that can help them on that day.

I think one of the most important characteristics for a physician to have is the ability to relate to their patients. I think it brings a level of trust and a level of comfort. One of the things I pride myself on is I try to spend a great deal of time with patients and their families when necessary.
