Renowned Cardiologist Brings Advanced Expertise to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Somerset and New Brunswick

Dr. Sethi, a distinguished interventional cardiologist affiliated with Heart Specialists of Central Jersey, is making waves in the medical community with his exceptional skills and expertise. Board-certified in interventional cardiology, cardiovascular disease, adult echocardiography, and nuclear cardiology, has been instrumental in performing groundbreaking procedures at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Somerset and New Brunswick.

A graduate of the University College of Medical Sciences in Delhi, India, he has amassed a wealth of experience in the field of cardiology. Following his medical degree, he completed an internal medicine residency at Chicago Medical School, and went on to pursue further specialization in cardiovascular disease at the same institution. He then honed his skills in interventional cardiology through a fellowship at the prestigious Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York.

Known for his expertise in complex coronary and peripheral vascular interventions, all achieved without the need for open surgery, Dr. Sethi has received additional training in cutting-edge percutaneous cardiac interventions, including Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR), Transcatheter Mitral valve repair/replacement (MitraClip), and various other advanced procedures.

In addition to his clinical practice, he is also actively engaged in clinical research, with several publications in renowned journals such as the Journal of American College of Cardiology, Circulation Cardiovascular Interventions, Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, and Canadian Journal of Cardiology. He also plays a vital role in educating the next generation of cardiologists and interventional fellows at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick.

Dr. Sethi's commitment to excellence, coupled with his passion for advancing the field of cardiology, has solidified his reputation as a leading interventional cardiologist. Patients and colleagues alike commend him for his compassionate care and unwavering dedication to improving cardiovascular health.
