Bhupinder Singh, MD, is a board-certified cardiologist serving patients at Heart and Vascular Care located in Plano and Mckinney, Texas. Dr. Singh is board certified in cardiovascular medicine, interventional cardiology, echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, and vascular ultrasound. 

Dr. Singh was born in Ambala, India, and grew up in Delhi, India. While teaching business organization, law, and statistics at Delhi University, Dr. Singh’s father suffered two heart attacks and underwent a coronary angiogram. Dr. Singh accompanied his father to the United States to receive a coronary artery bypass graft surgery at Texas Medical Center, becoming intimately involved in his care as he did not speak any English. Fascinated by the field of medicine and cardiology, Dr. Singh switched career paths to pursue his medical degree.

Dr. Singh completed his Bachelor of Science in biochemistry from the University of Maryland and his Doctor of Medicine from the University of Virginia. He furthered his training in internal medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, where he worked as a hospitalist for a year and continued his research in cardiology. Dr. Singh then began focusing on acute care and worked in emergency medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. Following his acute and internal medicine training, he decided to pursue his passion in cardiology at Hartford Hospital, affiliated with the University of Connecticut, where he trained in cardiovascular disease and interventional cardiology. 

After his training, Dr. Singh worked for a few years in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, before making Plano, Texas, his home in 2010. He previously served as Chief of Cardiology at Medical City Plano from 2019-2020. In his spare time, Dr. Singh also volunteers at the local medical camps all over the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

Dr. Singh currently works in Plano and Mckinney with his wife, Navneet, a physician assistant and Stephanie Harris, a nurse practitioner at Heart and Vascular Care. When he’s not working, Dr. Singh enjoys reading, traveling, yoga, jogging, and spending time with his family.
