Meet Dr. Amer Suleman
Dr. Amer Suleman has been practicing cardiology for more than 20 years, and he is our board-certified electrophysiologist at Preston Surgery Center in Frisco, TX. He completed two fellowships — one in cardiology at the Ochsner Medical Center in New Orleans, LA and one in electrophysiology at the Mid America Heart Institute in Kansas City, MO. Dr. Suleman achieved the highest level of certification in clinical cardiac electrophysiology in the field of heart rhythm management. He specializes in the surgical placement of pacemakers and defibrillators. He is certified as a specialist in clinical hypertension management by the American Society of Hypertension (one of less than 800 physicians in United States with this qualification). This is the highest level of certification in hypertension management. He is also certified in echocardiography by the American Society of Echocardiography, which is also the highest level of certification in cardiac ultrasonography.
