Jacqueline Schwartz, MD is a board certified Cardiac Electrophysiologist who practices with South Texas Cardiovascular Consultants.

Patients need to be educated about their disease process and feel informed and confident about the care choices we make together, Dr. Schwartz says.

Manuel M. Garcia, MD, FACC is Board Certified in Cardiology and practices with South Texas Cardiology Specialists in San Antonio. Dr. Garcia was influenced to pursue cardiology by a medical school professor and by his father, Dr. Allen Garcia, a prominent and beloved San Antonio physician who practiced internal medicine and cardiology. Early in his career, Dr. Garcia was drawn to cardiovascular procedures and interventions and the gratification derived from helping someone in acute cardiac distress. Since then, Dr. Garcia has developed a special interest in the care of patients with congestive heart failure and the advancements made both in medications and in the management of this condition. Dr. Garcia graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in biology from St. Mary's University in San Antonio, Texas. He pursued a degree in medicine from Texas Tech University School of Medicine in Lubbock, Texas and completed both his residency in internal medicine and fellowship in Cardiology at Texas Tech University Health Science Center in Lubbock. Dr. Garcia joined Central Cardiovascular Institute of San Antonio in 1995 and served as Chief Operating Officer and Director of their Congestive Heart Failure Clinic. In 2010, the practice became South Texas Cardiology Institute where Dr. Garcia also serves as Medical Director. Since 1996, Dr. Garcia has held various appointments at Southwest General Hospital, with Baptist Health System and with Methodist Healthcare. He was also the Medical Director of the Heart Center of Central San Antonio from 2002 to 2010. Most recently, Dr. Garcia served as Vice Chairman of the Quality Improvement Committee for Methodist Healthcare System from 2014 to 2016 and as Chairman from 2016 to 2017. He currently serves as Chief of Staff Elect at Methodist Texsan Hospital and will serve as Vice Chair for Medical Staff at Methodist Healthcare from 2019 to 2021. Dr. Espinoza practices at Heart Plaza One, and also sees patients at both Methodist Hospital | Texsan and Methodist Hospital | Metropolitan.

Cardiologist Steven E. Daniels, MD, FACC is Board Certified in Cardiology and Interventional Cardiology. He practices with South Texas Cardiovascular Consultants. Dr. Daniels graduated at the top of his class from a small, rural high school in Virginia, wanting to become either a lawyer or a physician. Thanks to a guidance counselor who veered him away from a career in law, and a mother who was a nurse, Dr. Daniels followed the path better suited to his personality and interests. He graduated summa cum laude from Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry. He studied medicine at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond, Virginia, and completed his internship and residency in internal medicine and his fellowship in Cardiology at Baylor College of Medicine and Affiliated Hospitals in Houston, Texas. Then, as the sole fellow who went to the Veteran's Administration to train in interventional cardiology, Dr. Daniels had a unique opportunity to perform angioplasties on his own every day. Recruited to join a practice in McAllen, Texas, Dr. Daniels, again, had the opportunity to perform a large number of cardiac interventions at this early stage in his career. After three years in McAllen, Dr. Daniels joined a small private practice in San Antonio, Texas, until he moved to South Texas Cardiovascular Consultants in early 2013. Dr. Daniels belongs to a number of professional organizations including the American College of Cardiology, Texas Medical Association, Bexar County Medical Society and the American Heart Association. He sees patients in the San Antonio and Kerrville offices as well as Methodist Hospital | Texsan.
