About me
Jeffrey B. Trabb, MD is a non-invasive cardiologist committed to improving the cardiac health of Southern Maryland residents where he began his practice career in 2007. Since joining MedStar Cardiology Associates in 2013 as Medical Director for its Southern Maryland offices, he has brought the latest in evidence based cardiac care to each of his patients with an individualized approach, and where appropriate, making use of advanced diagnostic imaging, expert cardiac subspecialists, and therapeutic interventions available to providers within the MedStar Heart and Vascular Institute. He is also a strong advocate for long-term cardiac risk prevention and improving the general well-being of those already impacted by heart disease.
Dr. Trabb graduated with his BA from the University of Notre Dame and completed his MD at Georgetown University School of Medicine. He then pursued further training with an internship and medicine residency at Emory University Hospitals and subsequently completed his fellowship in cardiovascular disease at Boston University Medical Center in 2007.
“My philosophy of care is to encounter each patient as a unique individual with a caring patient-centered approach. I actively engage each patient, making a point to take time to explain their condition to offer them a fuller understanding. In this way, I find that my patients more easily take ownership of their own care and partner with me in any decision making. Together, we then tailor your personalized path to cardiac wellness, improved prognosis, and better quality of life.”
