His clinical interests include complex arrhythmia management and catheter ablation (including atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia). He also has extensive experience with pacemaker, defibrillator (ICD) and biventricular devices, including laser lead extraction, and is adept in new ablation and implantable device technologies.
Additionally, Dr. Sandhu interprets echocardiograms (cardiac ultrasounds) and conducts and interprets cardiac stress tests. He also manages patients with chronic coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease and congestive heart failure.
Dr. Sandhu earned his medical degree from Temple University School of Medicine. His credentials are notable for board certification in four medical specialties—Cardiovascular Disease, Echocardiography, Nuclear Cardiology and Internal Medicine—and he recently completed an advanced fellowship in Cardiac Electrophysiology. He is fluent in English, Spanish and Punjabi.
Dr. Sandhu has a deep commitment to the doctor-patient relationship. He focuses on educating his patients, so that they fully understand the breadth of their cardiovascular disease problem and can actively participate in the dialogue to create a treatment plan that meets their needs.
Having spent most of his life in the Philadelphia area, Dr. Sandhu is a big local sports fan, especially of the Phillies. He also enjoys all things outdoors, including hiking and keeping busy with his three young children.
