About Dana D Leach

My name is Dana Leach, DNP, ARNP-C, CCRC, AACC. I am board certified in adult care and am active in the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology. My research interests include exercise physiology, electrophysiology, heart failure, ischemic heart disease, regenerative medicine and women’s health.

I am the associate director of the University of Florida’s Cardiology Clinical Trials Program, which supports the research mission for the cardiology faculty, fellows and staff by providing administrative (fiscal and regulatory) and coordinator support. I provide adult cardiovascular care in the division outpatient clinics and sub-investigator support for studies within the cardiovascular research portfolio at UF.

I earned my degrees at UF and have been with the UF Division of Cardiovascular Medicine since 1993. I am a member of Sigma Theta Tau, Association of Clinical Research Professionals (President of NF Chapter 1999-2001), Heart Failure Society of America and the American College of Cardiology.
