As board certified cardiologist and nuclear cardiologist, I like to have my patients on the least amount of medication that is feasible. I try to take care of patients as if they were family members.
I earned my medical degree at the University of Michigan School of Medicine, completed a residency at Montefiore Medical Center and a fellowship at North Shore University Hospital in New York. I have special interest and skills in pacemaker and defibrillator implants and I am a fellow of the American College of Cardiology.
Outside of work, I bike on Sundays (with good weather), play racquet sports and enjoy teasing my friends and family.

“I was very nervous and upset when I received a phone call concerning the results of the Nuclear Stress Test that Dr. Markson ordered for me. During the call I was informed that I had a Moderate Heart Attack at some point but the person on the phone said they were unsure when. Heart disease runs in my family however, after thinking about the phone call, I realized that if it was urgent, Dr. Markson would have scheduled an appointment for me ASAP. When I did have my appointment with Dr. Markson a few months later, he assured me that I did NOT have a heart attack. He showed me the results of the test on a monitor and explained that the test showed a slight abnormality but nothing to worry about. So whoever read the Nuclear Stress Test originally, read it wrong!! I've had many health issues in my lifetime so I am used to waiting for results and I try not to worry until I see the doctor to find out if there's a problem. But, this incident/phone call could be very scary for some people that are normally very healthy.”
