Biography

“I don’t think you can go anywhere and get better care from the cardiologists and the nurses and technicians than you can at the LMH Health Heart Center. Most of us have quite a few years of experience, but most of my partners don’t have as much grey hair as I do,” Dr. Michael Zabel says with a smile.

Dr. Zabel earned his medical degree from Washington University School of Medicine, and completed his residency and fellowship training in cardiology at Duke University. 

“I enjoy treating heart failure patients, those with ischemic heart disease and valvular heart disease, which we’re seeing more of because it tends to be age-related,” he said. “I want my patients to know not to worry too much about this. We can treat almost everything.”

Dr. Zabel is a Fellow of the American Society of Echocardiography and is board certified in cardiovascular disease. 

Philosophy Of Care

The goal for or some patients is to participate in a triathlon again and others want to get back and forth to the kitchen without assistance. I take a collaborative approach to care. Being able to work with people to determine what they want, what style and aggressiveness of care is critical when taking care of patients with heart disease.
