The office of Dr. Sandeep Singh provides integrative, high-quality cardiology care to people in and around Mesquite and Greenville, Texas. A board-certified cardiologist, Dr. Singh specializes in diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases like congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, and peripheral artery disease. He and the cardiology team also value the importance of preventive care to reduce risk factors for heart disease and other cardiovascular complications.
Dr. Singh earned his medical degree and completed his internal medicine internship and residency at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. He finished his cardiology fellowship and served as chief cardiology fellow at the University of Buffalo’s Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences in New York. He’s a fellow of the American College of Cardiology and the American College of Physicians.
After completing cardiac MRI training at Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, North Carolina, Dr. Singh earned an MBA in health care administration, graduating with honors from the Naveen Jindal School of Management at the University of Texas at Dallas. He’s a member of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and chairs the Department of Cardiovascular Services at Hunt Regional Healthcare in Greenville.
In his private practice, Dr. Singh and his cardiology team use advanced technologies, including echocardiograms and stress testing, to diagnose the cause of chest pain and other symptoms. He specializes in cardiac MRIs, which provide the most detailed images of valves, chambers, and other heart structures.
The cardiology specialists focus on lifestyle changes and other preventive strategies to support long-term heart health. They also personalize treatment plans to manage high cholesterol, hypertension (high blood pressure), and other conditions that increase risk factors for stroke and heart attack.
Call the office of Dr. Sandeep Singh, MD, near you to schedule a consultation or book an appointment online today.
