Get to know Cardiologist Dr. Colin W. Sumida, who serves patients in New Lenox, Illinois.
A highly trained cardiologist, Dr. Sumida is affiliated with Heartland Cardiovascular Center, LLC in New Lenox, Illinois, and Eterna MedSpa & Laser Vein Center in Shorewood, Illinois. He specializes in interventional cardiology, peripheral vascular disease, and venous insufficiency.
Educated in the United States, he completed his medical education and residency in internal medicine at Northwestern University in 1981 and 1984, respectively. Later, he completed his fellowship in cardiovascular disease at the Loyola University Medical Center in 1991.
Recognized as a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology (FACC), he is board-certified in cardiovascular disease, interventional cardiology, thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, and internal medicine by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM).The ABIM is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world.
In his professional experience, Dr. Sumida served in the United States Air Force as an internist for four years. After completing his fellowship, he practiced cardiology for 17 years with a special interest in interventional cardiology, performing balloon angioplasty and stenting procedures in the heart and legs. It was the evaluation and treatment of peripheral vascular arterial disease that eventually led to the treatment of venous disease as well.
The doctor has developed expertise in the treatment of varicose veins and spider telangiectasias with laser, injection sclerotherapy, and ambulatory phlebectomy (vein stripping) techniques that are all performed in the office. The cosmetic aspects of the vein practice has led him to acquire skills in BOTOX® injections, injectable fillers, and laser skin resurfacing techniques as well.

The field includes medical diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease, and electrophysiology. Cardiologists are doctors who diagnose, assess, and treat patients with diseases and defects of the heart and blood vessels (the cardiovascular system).
