Innovation In Structural Heart Management



Published
Dr. O’Neill, is an internationally recognized leader in Interventional Cardiology and Structural Heart Disease, as well as a pioneer in research and new techniques to diagnose and treat heart disease. He is one of the few Master Fellows out of 4,500 world-wide members of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (MSCAI), the professional medical society for invasive and interventional cardiologists. He pioneered the use of angioplasty for treatment of heart attacks, which is now the mainstay therapy throughout the world. He has been working on new catheter-based treatments of structural heart disease, and performed the first transcaval aortic valve replacement (TAVR) through a catheter in the U.S. in 2005. Currently he is organizing new protocols to treat a deadly side-effect of massive heart attacks. The Detroit Cardiogenic Shock Initiative increases patient survival rate from 50% to 76%.

A leader in academic and teaching hospitals for nearly 30 years, and to date, an author of more than 300 hundred peer-reviewed articles and abstracts published in medical literature, Dr. O’Neill has written multiple book chapters, and edited one of the first textbooks in the field of interventional cardiologists. He was a founding member of the American Board of Internal Medicine interventional cardiology board, which certifies all interventional cardiologists.

He is the former executive dean for Research, Research Training and Innovative Medicine, and CEO for Research at University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Previous positions include corporate chief of Cardiology at William Beaumont Hospital, as well as director of the cardiac catheterization laboratory and associate professor of medicine at the University of Michigan Hospital.

A graduate of Wayne State University School of Medicine, where he was a resident, Dr. O’Neill completed a cardiology fellowship at the University of Michigan Hospital.

We are very fortunate to have Dr. O’Neill present, and we look forward to seeing you there!
