I had the fortunate opportunity to first connect with Dr. Basavan last year when my parents both underwent heart surgeries weeks apart from one another. Today's visit was for me.Dr. Basavan's ability to connect with his patients and provide exceptional care is remarkable. His curiosity yields extensive medical knowledge of historic and current cardiac trends that come with patient understanding. I truly feel he is just the best, the absolute best.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
