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.

Everyone was nice and friendly except the girl at the check in. She ignored me till I seen a nurse come out for a patient so I asked if she could help me. I guess the nurse told the girl because she helped me immediately after that. To begin with trying to get an appointment was hopeless until my daughter in law finally got hold of her friend. I called and called, left messages but no one returned my call. Dr. Virk's nurse was very efficient and and Dr Virk was extremely nice, professional and helpful. I'm glad he's my doctor and I would definitely recommend him.

Everyone was very nice and caring. Dr. Virk went above and and beyond and ordered some tests to see if he could find out why I pass out on the toilet.

Dr. Virk was very professional. He made me feel at ease and relaxed, which is not an easy thing to do when you are at a cardiovascular physician's office, period. I have great confidence in him.

My cardiologist had left the practice and due to a clerical error, I was not called about my cancelled appointment. But they were all very helpful and got me in with a different cardiologist after a very short wait. I was very happy with them.
