Clinical Excellence
Since “last century,” patients and professional colleagues alike have recognized Dr. Mark Urman and Dr. Jeffrey Caren, not only as sensitive and caring bedside physicians, but as having exceptional clinical judgment and awareness of the current thought in clinical cardiology. As consultative cardiologists, all of our doctors have a greater opportunity to spend time and communicate with patients and thoroughly investigate their cardiac issues. We are proud that for beyond the past decade, both our senior cardiologists have been formally recognized year after year and Drs Caren and Urman are honored and humbled:
