He will be performing a range of cardiac, thoracic, and vascular operations at Monument Health, working alongside cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Charan Mungara. Dr. Cambiaghi’s clinical focus includes treating patients with aortic dissection and aneurysms, carotid, coronary, and peripheral arterial disease, and heart valve pathology. He also plans to contribute to the institute’s advanced structural heart and endovascular programs.
