I am a quadruple board certified internist, cardiologist, interventional cardiologist and nuclear cardiologis who treats the whole patient and not an organ system.
Dr. Azimi, a cardiologist in La Mesa, is qualified to care for the heart and cardiovascular system. Dr. Azimi may see patients for indicators like breathlessness, dizziness or chest pains, among others. Heart conditions diagnosed and treated by a cardiologist may include heart failure, heart aneurysms, coronary artery disease, rheumatic heart disease, arrhythmia, angina and congenital heart defects, among others.
Vascular surgeons are trained to evaluate and treat complications and diseases of the circulatory system including arteries, veins, and blood vessels. Dr. Azimi may offer a range of surgical and non-surgical treatments, including the removal of plaque from arteries, treatment of varicose veins, and surgery to prevent aneurysms, heart attacks or coronary artery disease, among others.
