With an MD from the LSU School of Medicine, Dr. Gregory Sampognaro has served as an interventional cardiologist at the Affinity Health Group since 2014. Dr. Gregory Sampognaro keeps current with his profession by participating as a fellow MD at several professional associations, such as the Society of Coronary Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) and the American College of Cardiology.
SCAI was founded in 1976 by two scientists who successfully contributed to the development of invasive cardiology. Dr. F. Sones and Dr. Melvin Judkins formed the society to conduct and advance invasive cardiology studies.
Also dedicated to patient education and collaboration, SCAI created a campaign in 2015 to share the value of interventional cardiology. The campaign called Unbroken Hearts publicized some real-life stories from patients who have suffered from severe heart conditions and how these conditions were treated, and their lives improved with the help of technology, fast action, and skills of interventional cardiologists and their team.
SCAI’s dedication to patient education through Unbroken Hearts has raised awareness in the world of social media and brought a better understanding of interventional cardiovascular medicine and to the technology and science involved in the treatment of heart disease.
