Florida Heart and Vascular Center offers services that are far-reaching in breadth and scope. Founded in 1991 by internationally-recognized interventional Cardiologist Dr. David Lew, the Center provides patients with the highest level of cardiovascular and peripheral vascular care through expertise, a high-trained nursing staff and leading-edge technology.
The practice has been active in developing improved techniques and technologies which today have become the industry standard. Our physicians were the first in the area to perform procedures including cardiac catheterizations, primary angioplasty, abdominal aortic aneurysms and carotid artery stenting to prevent or alleviate strokes.
We have also been involved in select national and worldwide investigations of leading-edge procedures and technology, and have been selected as national expert preceptors for the purpose of training colleagues nationwide in the diagnosis and non-surgical treatment of vascular disease.
Florida Heart and Vascular Center physicians are also actively involved in clinical research and in formal training of UF's cardiology fellows rotating through our facility.
