Jorge A Fernandez, MD, FACC

Hi my name is Jorge Fernandez, MD, FACC, and I am a cardiologist and an assistant professor in the University of Florida Division of Cardiovascular Medicine. I am board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in cardiovascular disease. Some areas of clinical emphasis are ultrasound, nuclear cardiology and heart arrhythmias.

My medical journey started at the University of South Florida where I double majored in economics and biomedical science, graduating as summa cum laude for both of my degrees. I remained at USF to complete my medical degree and my internal medical residency. I completed my cardiovascular disease fellowship at the State University of New York at Buffalo.

I very much enjoy teaching cardiovascular medicine. That is why I have participated in teaching activities like chest pain lectures for medical residents and electrocardiogram workshops for internal medicine residents, both while at SUNY Buffalo. I am also an active member in professional organizations, including the American College of Cardiology and the American Society of Echocardiography.

I am deeply committed to cardiovascular education. I practice this through activities with the American Board of Internal Medicine, and I am hoping to expand my involvement in educating the next generation of cardiologists. I will continue to expand and refine my own non-invasive skill sets with the goal of always providing the most updated and outstanding cardiology care. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my partner playing chess, cooking and gardening.
