Muhammad Akram Khan, MD, MBA, FACC, FSCAI, is a cardiovascular specialist at the Cardiac Center of Texas in McKinney, Texas. Dr. Khan completed his cardiology and interventional cardiology fellowships at Baylor Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, and has been practicing non-invasive and interventional cardiology in McKinney since 1997. Board certified in cardiovascular medicine and interventional cardiology, Dr. Khan is also certified by The American Board of Venous and Lymphatic Medicine.
On the interventional cardiology front, Dr. Khan utilizes new technology, techniques, and new devices at his practice to enhance service to his patients. Of note, he was the first cardiologist in Collin County to deploy a drug-eluting stent in 2003. He is well-equipped and skilled in all kinds of coronary and peripheral interventions. His expertise in peripheral vascular disease includes minimally invasive surgical treatment of carotid artery stenosis, peripheral vascular disease, and abdominal aortic aneurysm endovascular treatment.
On the non-invasive side, he has state-of-the-art equipment in-office to complete comprehensive cardiac evaluations under one roof. Other services offered in-office include echocardiograms, stress tests, EKG, angiography through CT technology, and pacemaker analysis.
Dr. Khan is actively involved in clinical studies and has been conducting research at his practice since 2002. He established the North Dallas Research Associates in McKinney, where he currently conducts research trials.
In addition to practicing medicine, Dr. Khan has been very instrumental in the McKinney Medical Center and developed a separate cardiology section there in 1999. He was the first Chief of Cardiology at the Medical Center of McKinney and was the Chief of Medicine at Presbyterian Hospital of Allen in 2003. Dr. Khan has also been involved in other medical centers in the area, including Centennial Medical Center in Frisco, Medical Center of Plano, and Baylor Scott & White The Heart Hospital - Plano. When he is not practicing medicine, Dr. Khan enjoys spending time with his two teenagers and one preschooler at home in Frisco.
Dr. Khan is a member of the Texas Medical Association, American Heart Association, American College of Cardiology, International Society of Endovascular Specialists, American College of Phlebology, and Association of Clinical Research Professionals. He was also selected as a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and the Society for Cardiac Angiography and Intervention.
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.
