Health Night Out on February 27, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. will feature Dr. Hoang Thai, M.D., FACC, FSCAI. His topic will be Breakthroughs in Cardiac Care.
Interventional cardiologists rank among the world’s foremost authorities on cardiovascular disease and its treatment. February’s presenter at Health Night Out, Dr. Hoang Thai, is an interventional cardiologist. He will discuss some of the newest treatments for heart disease:
Dissolving stents
Lasers to open blocked arteries
Wireless sensors for heart failure
Valve replacement without surgery
Leadless pacemakers, and more
Dr. Thai specializes in complex interventional cases such as patients with impaired heart function and those suffering from cardiogenic shock. He also performs high risk cardiac interventions such as reopening chronic total occlusion, left main interventions and often in high-risk patients who have been turned down for bypass surgery.
Dr. Thai earned his medical degree at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. He also did his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at the U of A College of Medicine. He earned a fellowship in Cardiovascular Medicine and is a member of the medical staff of Northwest Medical Center and Oro Valley Hospital.
His interest in medicine was inspired by his physician father, and he appreciates the immediate results often experienced with cardiac intervention in acute patients. Dr. Thai enjoys the intellectual side of cardiology, which allows him to be continually involved in research, studies and new technology. He believes that an informed person, working in partnership with the doctor, creates the best results.
