Behind the White Coat:

Dr. Mubbasher Syed Interventional Cardiologist

Throughout Dr. Syed’s childhood, his mother instilled the belief that a human’s worth is best measured by their ability to help those around him. In honor of this belief and his love and adoration for his mother, Dr. Syed chose to work in the medical field. As Dr. Syed advanced his education in cardiology, his residency at Fairview Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio inspired his career as an interventional cardiologist. On a night call as a new intern, Dr. Syed witnessed an interventional cardiologist wire and balloon a completely occluded left anterior descending artery. Dr. Syed was mesmerized as he watched the interventionist perform this procedure, “I could not fathom a more potent and elegant way of being helpful to my patients. The immediate and tangible sense of reward was nothing like I had seen in any other subspecialty. I knew in that moment that I had found my calling and have never looked back,” recalls Dr. Syed. Dr. Syed is a huge advocate for prevention. He believes prevention is the best management for any ailment. As a practicing physician at FCCI, he hopes to help our patients with lifestyle changes, counseling, screening, and medication management, to effectively preempt an emergency room visit. Along with preventative healthcare, Dr. Syed is also passionate about innovation in endovascular procedures. He states, “We owe it to the pioneers of this field and to our patients, to continually evolve, innovate, and simplify minimally invasive therapeutic options,” says Dr. Syed. The biggest inspiration in Dr. Syed’s life is his four year-old daughter, Sakeena. Sakeena has inspired her dad to be a better human and role model, “Sakeena lives up to her name, which means peace and tranquility. Like all daughters, she is the purest and most affectionate of blessings a man can have. She inspires me to reimage myself in a manner I never would have thought possible before her,” says Dr. Syed.
