Together, we will consider the risks and benefits of our decision to perform, or not perform, any cardiac intervention. I will always take the time to answer any questions and candidly provide any necessary information prior to performing any procedure. When I perform an intervention, I do so with confidence and conviction with a humble sense of when to stop. By doing so, I am able to abide by the physician’s principal creed of “First, to do no harm.”</p> <p><strong>Research Interests: </strong></p> <p>Dr. Frisoli has an interest in the research of minimally-invasive heart valve operations, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, evaluation of chest pain in the emergency department, and paravalvular leak repairs.</p> Read More
