Adam Vohra, MD, MBA is an interventional cardiologist specializing in minimally-invasive, catheter-based techniques for diagnosing and treating heart disease. Dr. Vohra performs a wide range of interventional procedures, including angioplasty, stenting and atherectomy to manage complex coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and heart failure. He also evaluates cardiovascular blood flow (coronary physiology) to diagnose coronary microvascular disease, a condition that affects how blood moves through the small vessels in the heart.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Vohra also is an active researcher focusing on the role of health policy on cardiovascular outcomes and his research has been published in several peer-reviewed journals, including Health Affairs, Circulation Cardiovascular Interventions, and JAMA Network Open. He is also dedicated to teaching and mentoring the next generation of cardiologists. He supervises cardiology fellows, sharing his cardiac catheterization knowledge and experience as they advance through their medical career.
Prior to joining the faculty of the University of Chicago, Dr. Vohra completed a general and interventional cardiology fellowship at New York-Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medicine. He previously completed medical school at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and his internship and residency at the University of Chicago Medicine. He received a Masters in Business Administration from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. He is board-certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular medicine, echocardiography, and interventional cardiology.
