Our Physicians
At Southern Heart Group, our team of physicians is comprised entirely of board certified specialists who are highly-skilled in their field of expertise. Our physicians have been recognized among “America’s Top Physicians” and “Jacksonville’s Top Docs” and were recently profiled as “Northeast Florida’s BEST for Cardiology Care”. Because the Southern Heart Group team includes diagnostic, invasive, interventional, and electrophysiology specialists, we are able to provide superior care for the full spectrum of cardiovascular conditions.
With more than 130 years of combined experience, our interventional team has performed thousands of coronary interventions. Whether it be an emergency situation or an elective procedure, our interventional cardiologists are recognized experts in restoring blood flow to the heart. In addition, our peripheral vascular specialists are highly-trained and experienced in performing procedures that restore blood flow to blocked or narrowed arteries in the neck, arms, legs and abdomen.
Southern Heart Group’s diagnostic specialists use the highest quality, state-of-the-art tools and training to thoroughly evaluate and properly diagnose each patient. By performing comprehensive consultations and treating each patient as an individual, our diagnostic physicians are able to assess the whole patient and take into account all factors that could contribute to a disease condition. This also allows for the best treatment plan and preventative measures so that each patient is able to move forward in a positive direction with their life and their health.
Our electrophysiology services have successfully diagnosed and treated thousands of patients who suffer from irregular heart rhythms and disorders of the heart’s electrical system. Should you need to see a specialist to be evaluated for a heart rhythm disorder, you will receive the highest level of care and expertise at Southern Heart Group. Our dedicated electrophysiologist, Dr. Venkata Sagi, has successfully treated thousands of patients including those considered to be the most difficult types of cases. A recipient of the Edgar E. Hull Award in Cardiology, Dr. Sagi is a board certified, highly-specialized cardiologist who is an expert in the heart’s electrical system and whose sole focus is treating heart rhythm disorders.
