Nickolaos Michelakis, MD

I was drawn to the specialty of cardiology because it allows me to greatly improve my patients’ quality of life. I chose to subspecialize in heart failure and heart transplantation to better understand how clinical heart failure develops and how it can be prevented through primary prevention cardiology.

I see patients who have various cardiovascular diseases, including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, chest pain, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. I offer people treatment options that help reduce the progression of their heart conditions to end-stage heart disease.

When patients come to me, I develop a treatment plan based on their individual needs. I believe in collaborating with my patients to ensure that they receive optimal treatments that support their individual wellbeing.

As a physician, I am committed to the education of medical students, residents, and cardiovascular fellows to foster the valuable clinical knowledge needed to benefit patients.
