Meet Dr. Dalawari
Jasdeep Dalawari, M.D. is a highly skilled cardiologist in medical practice for almost 20 years. He specializes in Interventional Cardiovascular Medicine and holds Board-Certifications in 6 complementary and interdependent medical specialties, including Internal and Emergency Medicine.
“When I first graduated from medical school, I wanted the broadest knowledge base possible. Therefore, I chose to pursue a dual specialty 5-year program in Emergency and Internal Medicine. In my 3rd year of this program, I noticed my interest focusing on cardiology.”
20% percent of ED visits are cardiac in origin and I was drawn to those patients the most.
As I continued to pursue my cardiology fellowship, I enjoyed procedures and knew I could make the most direct and tangible impact in my patients’ outcomes in the field of interventional cardiology.”

What is a Cardiac Interventionalist?
“Interventional Cardiology is an area of medicine within the subspecialty of cardiology that uses specialized imaging and other diagnostic techniques to evaluate blood flow and pressure in the coronary arteries and chambers of the heart, as well as technical procedures and medications to treat abnormalities that impair the function of the cardiovascular system.”
“...deals specifically with the catheter-based treatment of heart diseases. The field includes the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease, vascular disease, and acquired structural heart disease.”
In short, a specialist in the use of angiograms and other imaging to diagnose and perform highly specialized techniques to improve blood flow to the heart before compromised arteries lead to heart failure.
A Cardiovascular Interventionalist uses catheter based treatment. A stent or balloon angioplasty are some better-known procedures in cardiovascular, vascular and endovascular treatment.
