Coming from a medical family, Kamal Shemisa, MD, discovered a love for studying the complexities of the human body at a young age. He was selected for a BSMD program at Kent State, an accelerated program that combines undergraduate studies with medical school.
Dr. Shemisa was attracted to the technology developments in cardiology, especially in imaging that allows physicians to appropriately diagnose cardiovascular disease, accurately risk-predict future events and make important decisions in emergencies. He's excited about the ongoing innovations in cardiology and the ability to make a real difference in people's lives. These include tele-monitoring as well as novel therapeutics in heart failure, stable coronary disease and lipid disease management.
Dr. Shemisa encourages his patients to pursue a healthy lifestyle, making smart choices that incorporate diet, exercise and tobacco avoidance. He likes to create a comfortable atmosphere where patients feel free to talk about their health concerns. He believes in a shared decision-making process and personalized care for each patient.
Married to a breast imaging radiologist, Dr. Shemisa enjoys travel, theater, nature and playing tennis and chess.
