Interventional Cardiologist

Dr. Prasad is board certified in Cardiovascular Diseases, Nuclear Cardiology, and Interventional Cardiology. He is also a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and has been awarded Northern Virginia’s Top Doctor awards for five consecutive years.

Together with a skilled team of nurses and other providers, Dr. Prasad has been vital in bringing the option of an implantable monitoring device for heart failure patients to this area.

He works extremely hard, is unshakably determined, and a strong advocate for patients and others. Compassion, integrity, wisdom, and humility are at his core, taking the necessary time to educate and get to know each patient and their families. Dr. Prasad, his wife, and four children live in Fredericksburg. In his personal time, he enjoys literature, reading, and writing.
