Get to Know Me

What are some of the specific conditions you treat?

Advanced heart failure,  pulmonary hypertension,  hypertrophic cardiomyopathy,  women’s heart issues.

What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?

When caring for patients with heart conditions, I use a holistic approach.  I look at each patient as an individual and target treatments to each patient's individual needs.

Describe some of your professional highlights.

I’m a member of the Outpatient Transitional Care team.  The Outpatient Transitional Care program helps facilitate the transition from hospital to home and strives to prevent hospital readmission for patients with heart failure.  I’ve also been involved in several clinical research trials.

Dr. Abbate was knowledgable, caring and showed genuine concern for my daughter's well being beyond any cardiac issues. She could tell she was having teenage coping problems as well as anxiety over her possible cardiac concerns. She assured her that she will be fine but will do testing to make sure we are not missing anything.
