Dr. Smit Vasaiwala sees patients in Maywood, IL and Burr Ridge, IL. His medical specialties are adult cardiology and cardiac electrophysiology (heart rhythm). He studied at Loyola University Chicago, Stritch School of Medicine.

"A cardiologist at Loyola highly recommended Dr. Vasaiwala and referred me to him. However, in my experience, I will never see this doctor again. He was arrogant and completely disregarded the diagnoses and test results of more senior cardiologists of my heart condition. Two major failings occurred under his care: 1) My ICD was not completely programmed and he did not recognize it. His boss discovered the issue and his boss completed the programming of my ICD, after an incident, and 2) During an EP study, I went into VT Storm and cardiac arrest. Dr. Vasaiwala was unprepared for the complexity of my heart issues having ignored other cardiologists. I felt like a guinea pig for this newbie."

What is Cardiology?

Cardiology is the study of the heart and blood vessels, and a cardiologist makes sure they are functioning well. Patients see cardiologists for many issues affecting the circulatory system, including:

Hypertension, or high blood pressure
Heart attack prevention and treatment
Congestive heart failure (CHF), where the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the needs of the body
Heart transplant evaluation and care after surgery
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD), where arteries in the limbs narrow and reduce blood flow
Aneurysm, or a swelling in the blood vessels
Coronary artery disease (CAD), where the blood vessels delivering oxygen and nutrients to the heart become blocked

After performing a physical exam, a cardiologist may order a number of imaging tests in order to get a better understanding of what disease or complication might be causing problems in the heart and blood vessels. Some of these might include:

An electrocardiogram, which checks the heart's electrical activity
X-rays to see tissues more clearly
Cardiac catheterization, where a small tube is directed into the heart to test pressure, oxygen levels, and blood flow

Although some cardiologists provide primary care, cardiologists more typically work as consultants to primary care physicians when a heart issue comes up. Cardiologists do not perform surgery, but they can perform 'interventional' procedures, such as balloon angioplasty (where a balloon is used to stretch open narrowed veins) or stent placement to keep blood flowing.
