New York City-based Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has appointed Dr Samin Sharma as its new Chief of Clinical Cardiology, placing a veteran physician and internationally recognised interventional cardiologist at the helm of one of the institution’s most important clinical divisions.
In his new role, Dr Sharma will oversee the strategic direction and day-to-day clinical operations of the cardiology division. The appointment marks a significant new chapter in a relationship with Mount Sinai that spans more than three decades.
Dr Sharma has been a longstanding member of the Mount Sinai community and has played a pivotal role in advancing the institution’s complex coronary care capabilities. According to the health system, his contributions to the development of complex coronary care have been “monumental”.
As Chief of Clinical Cardiology, he will be responsible for guiding the division’s clinical priorities while helping shape its future direction. His appointment comes at a time when cardiovascular medicine continues to evolve rapidly, driven by advances in interventional procedures, technology, research, and increasingly specialised models of patient care.
For Dr Sharma, the new leadership role represents the culmination of decades of clinical service and institutional commitment. His journey also reflects the remarkable contributions of Indian-origin physicians to medicine and healthcare in the US.
Maneesh Media congratulates Dr Samin Sharma, who was featured in Jewels of India – Bharat Ki Shaan, Bharat Ka Abhiman. We are sure that his appointment as Chief of Clinical Cardiology at Mount Sinai will open a new and exciting chapter in his remarkable journey of medical leadership and service. We wish him every success as he continues to shape the future of cardiology and inspire generations through his extraordinary contributions to medicine.
