About Me

I'm Fawad Virk, MD, FACC, and I joined Phelps Health as a cardiologist and an interventional cardiologist in 2021. I see patients 18 years or older.

When caring for my patients, I take a holistic approach. I look beyond the disease and see my patient as a whole.

I developed an interest in medicine because I enjoyed studying biology and how the human body works. I chose to specialize in cardiology because in many cases, I can make a difference in a patient’s quality of life rather quickly. I consider myself approachable and use the best possible, evidence-based care with my patients.

At the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas, I was honored to be named the Best Cardiology Fellow. I am married with one son. In my free time, I enjoy food and outdoor activities. I am fluent in several languages, including English, Urdu, Hindi and Punjabi.

I also offer telehealth visits, which allow patients to visit with me remotely using a smartphone, tablet or computer with an internet connection and audio-video capabilities.
