Introduction
Dr. Seph Naficy is a cardiovascular surgeon with interests and training in cardiothoracic surgery, vascular surgery, and transcatheter structural heart therapies.
He was inspired to pursue his career by his father, a cardiothoracic surgeon, and his mother, a pathologist. To work with humility has been their guiding principle. Tailoring therapy to the patient has been his.
Individualized therapy is at the center of Dr. Naficy’s care. “I determine what treatment will serve my patients best, first based on who they are as a person, and then accounting for their disease burden and overall therapy needs,” he says. “I’m excited and proud to be part of a robust and progressive heart and vascular institute who shares a similar vision.”
Dr. Naficy is interested in the arts and enjoys exploring the outdoors.
