Dr Dev has a
boutique practice in preventive, diagnostic and
interventional cardiology. Emphasis is on
comprehensive and compassionate cardiac care. Dr Dev
did research and interventional cardiology training at
Cedars' Sinai Medical center and has been on the
faculty at Cedars' Sinai Medical Center and an
Associate clinical professor at UCLA. Dr Dev is
currently the Medical Director at Los Robles Medical
Center at Thousand Oaks, CA. Dr Dev specializes in
coronary stents, stents for peripheral vascular
disease, and carotid stents and treatment of heart
disease, congestive heart failure, hypertension, high
cholesterol and vascular disease.
State of the Art
Care: Dr Dev started his career as a scientist at
Cedars' Sinai Medical Center and has published
more than 120 scientific papers; review articles and
chapters in prestigious books. Dr Dev is currently the
Principal Investigator of a number of clinical trials.
We are aware of the cutting edge technology and stay
on top of the recent advances in medicine and offer
therapy based on these to our patients. In most
circumstances we are early adopters of new research
and technology to the benefit of our patients. As
noted in the "In the News Section" and the
"Publications" Dr Dev help start the Ventura
County's heart attack project, helped get STEMI center
and Chest Pain Center designations for the Los Robles
Hospital; and started the carotid stent and the PFO
closure projects for stroke management.
Personalized
Care: Dr Dev does not share call with a large group of
doctors as is often the case in healthcare now. He
takes his own call except for few weeks in a year.
Hence the patients get to see him personally during
emergencies rather than a substitute physician who has
not seen the patient on a regular basis.
Electronic
Medical Records: For the last 10 years all our medical
records are electronic and hence are promptly
available in their entirety during an emergency. They
are also remotely accessible; making sure your medical
information is accurately, completely and promptly
available when it is needed most. Our practice is
already practicing what the country as a whole aspires
to do in the next decade.
Prompt Care:
Cardiology is a field where prompt care is absolutely
critical. Despite the fact that we have one of the
largest cardiology practices in the area we will see a
patient if needed in our office within 1-2 days and
sometimes even on the same day as appropriate. Our
office is in a building closest to the Emergency
Department of the Los Robles Hospital. Dr Dev would
often walk down to the Emergency Room to take care of
his patients in the ER, even during a busy office. You
can expect prompt care when you need most.
