Advanced Interventional & Comprehensive Cardiac Care

Dr. Padgaonkar is an Interventional Cardiologist with expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease and a broad range of cardiovascular conditions.

His practice combines contemporary interventional techniques, advanced coronary imaging, physiological assessment, and preventive cardiology to provide individualized, evidence-based cardiac care.

With experience in both routine and complex coronary interventions, Dr. Padgaonkar has a particular interest in the use of advanced techniques for challenging coronary lesions, including heavily calcified arteries, left main disease, bifurcation lesions, chronic total occlusions, and other complex coronary anatomy.

02

Coronary Angiography & Angioplasty

Dr. Padgaonkar performs diagnostic coronary angiography and coronary angioplasty (PCI) using both radial and femoral approaches.

His interventional expertise includes:

  • Diagnostic coronary angiography
  • Coronary angioplasty (PCI)
  • Radial and femoral coronary angiography and angioplasty
  • Primary PCI for acute myocardial infarction
  • Rescue PCI
  • Routine and complex coronary interventions
  • Treatment of heavily calcified coronary lesions
03

Complex Coronary Interventions

Dr. Padgaonkar has expertise in managing complex coronary artery disease using advanced PCI techniques and contemporary lesion-preparation strategies.

His areas of complex coronary intervention include:

  • Left main coronary artery disease
  • Coronary bifurcation lesions, including dedicated bifurcation stenting techniques
  • Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO)
  • Saphenous Vein Graft (SVG) lesions
  • Complex and heavily calcified coronary lesions
  • Primary and rescue PCI
  • Complex multivessel coronary interventions

Treatment strategies are selected according to the patient’s coronary anatomy, clinical presentation, lesion characteristics, and overall cardiovascular risk.

04

Advanced Techniques in Coronary Intervention

Rotational & Orbital Atherectomy

Advanced atherectomy techniques such as Rotablation (Rotational Atherectomy) and Orbital Atherectomy can be used to modify severely calcified coronary lesions and facilitate optimal stent delivery and expansion in appropriately selected patients.

Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS)

IVUS-guided angioplasty provides detailed information about coronary vessel dimensions, plaque characteristics, lesion morphology, and stent expansion. It can help optimize the planning and final result of complex coronary interventions.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT-guided coronary angioplasty provides high-resolution intravascular imaging that can assist in lesion assessment, stent sizing, positioning, and optimization.

Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)

Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) is a physiological assessment used in selected coronary lesions to determine whether a narrowing is associated with a significant reduction in coronary blood flow and may benefit from revascularization.

Excimer Laser Coronary Angioplasty (ELCA)

Dr. Padgaonkar also has experience with Excimer Laser Coronary Angioplasty (ELCA) as an advanced technique in selected complex coronary interventions.

05

Other Interventional Procedures

In addition to coronary interventions, Dr. Padgaonkar’s procedural expertise includes:

  • Renal Angioplasty for selected patients with renal artery stenosis
  • Permanent Pacemaker Implantation (PPI)
  • Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty (BMV)
06

Clinical & Preventive Cardiology

Interventional treatment is only one component of comprehensive cardiovascular care. Dr. Padgaonkar also has a strong focus on clinical and preventive cardiology, with an emphasis on early identification and long-term management of cardiovascular risk.

This includes assessment and management of:

  • High blood pressure
  • Diabetes and metabolic risk factors
  • Cholesterol and lipid disorders
  • Smoking-related cardiovascular risk
  • Obesity and lifestyle-related cardiovascular risk
  • Family history and other cardiovascular risk factors
  • Prevention of heart attack and stroke
  • Long-term cardiovascular risk reduction

The goal is not only to treat established heart disease, but also to identify cardiovascular risk early and help patients reduce their future risk through appropriate medical treatment, lifestyle modification, and regular follow-up.

07

Academic & Professional Contributions

Alongside his clinical practice, Dr. Padgaonkar has contributed to the academic field through publications in cardiology and interventional cardiology.

His continuing involvement in contemporary interventional cardiology reflects an interest in evolving techniques, advanced coronary imaging, physiological assessment, and evidence-based approaches to complex coronary disease.

08

A Comprehensive Approach to Cardiovascular Care

Dr. Padgaonkar’s practice brings together clinical cardiology, preventive cardiology, diagnostic coronary angiography, routine and complex coronary intervention, advanced coronary imaging, and contemporary interventional techniques.

Each patient’s treatment strategy is individualized based on their symptoms, clinical condition, cardiovascular risk, coronary anatomy, and overall health.
