About Us
Weill Cornell Medcine鈥檚 HeartHealth program offers a comprehensive cardiovascular evaluation for healthy individuals with significant cardiovascular risk factors, such as family history or underlying conditions. We offer up-to-date imaging techniques to diagnose early cardiac disease that is asymptomatic (or not causing any symptoms in a patient鈥檚 overall health). Because many of us are unaware of our risk, we recommend individuals with any of the below criteria to consider having an evaluation with our preventative cardiologists at HeartHealth in New York City.

What Our Patients Are Saying
Amazing caring time & attention from Dr. Zarnegar and his whole team! Treating conditions that can flare from STRESS! Feeling blessed to work with a world-class surgeon, with plain humble talk, builds confidence & comfort big-time.
My first time there. I simply could not be more pleased with the very helpful and friendly staff. As for Dr. sadoughi ... he turned out to be wonderful. In fact, he is my choice for my new doctor. I can鈥檛 vouch for the other doctors at this practice, but I can and will vouch for him. One of the things that immediately jumped out at me was the fact that, unlike so many other doctors out there, Dr Sadoughi didn鈥檛 merely pretend to listen ... he actually listened to me, and heard what I had to say. It simply doesn鈥檛 get any better than that.
Dr. Pastore is a compassionate, highly-skilled physician whose guidance is invaluable to me. Over several years, Dr. Pastore has sculpted my treatment plan based on what is his unusual ability to address my not only my physical issues but also, my emotional needs. After visiting a number of hematologists, I feel very lucky to have Dr. Pastore as my doctor. His staff is also warm, technically skilled and always welcoming.
