Meet the physician

Exceptional medicine begins with understanding.

Dr. Shayef Gabasha is an interventional and structural cardiologist with advanced training in minimally invasive therapies for heart and vascular disease. His clinical interests span coronary interventions, structural heart procedures, cardiac devices, and cardiovascular imaging.

In addition to caring for patients, he has served as Chief of Cardiology at Mike O’Callaghan Military Medical Center in Nevada. His work reflects a commitment to advancing cardiovascular care through clinical innovation and collaboration.

His philosophy is simple: patients deserve clear explanations, individualized decisions, and the time needed to feel heard.

Clinical focus

Specialized skills. A broader view of health.

Advanced procedural capabilities are most meaningful when they serve each patient’s goals. These are selected areas of Dr. Gabasha’s training and clinical interests; procedure availability depends on the treating facility.

Coronary & Vascular Interventions

Evaluation and catheter-based treatment of complex coronary artery disease, including advanced PCI techniques and intravascular imaging.

Structural Heart Disease

Specialized interest in transcatheter valve therapies, left atrial appendage closure, and other minimally invasive structural heart treatments.

Heart Rhythm & Cardiac Devices

Experience with pacemaker and defibrillator therapies, including innovative leadless pacing approaches for appropriately selected patients.

Advanced Cardiovascular Imaging

Using echocardiography, cardiac CT, and nuclear cardiology to understand disease, guide treatment, and support informed shared decisions.

The philosophy

Technology can transform treatment. Connection transforms care.

Cardiology is not simply a series of tests or procedures. It is a relationship built on trust, clinical judgment, and understanding what matters most to the person seeking care.

01Listen carefully and explain clearly.
02Consider the whole patient, not just a diagnosis.
03Use advanced treatments thoughtfully and responsibly.

Without missing a beat: Mike O’Callaghan Military Medical Center advances cardiac care

The October 2026 feature highlights Dr. Gabasha and his team’s use of an alternative-access technique to implant a leadless pacemaker, along with the larger effort to expand access to advanced cardiac care in Nevada.

Patient education

Questions worth asking.

What is interventional cardiology?

Interventional cardiology uses minimally invasive, catheter-based techniques to diagnose and treat certain cardiovascular conditions, often avoiding the need for open surgery.

What is structural heart disease?

Structural heart disease affects the heart’s valves, walls, or chambers. Depending on the condition, transcatheter procedures may provide an alternative to surgery for selected patients.

Are all treatments appropriate for everyone?

No. The right treatment depends on a careful evaluation of symptoms, imaging, overall health, individual preferences, and sometimes discussion by a multidisciplinary heart team.

How can I arrange an appointment?

Appointments, referrals, and procedure availability depend on the medical facility or practice where care is being provided. Please use that facility’s official scheduling channels. This independent profile does not accept appointment requests.
