Dr. Larry Hurwitz, MD

"I have been in the practice of general cardiology since 1973. My special interests are prevention of cardiovascular disease and the rehabilitation of patients with heart disease. I have served in the exercise laboratory in the Montefiore Hospital and am now involved in the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program at the Western Pennsylvania Hospital.

Over the past 20 years I have been committed to medical education and teaching and maintained my academic appointments at the University of Pittsburgh. Most of all, I value my relationships with my patients. Shadyside Cardiology Associates has allowed me to continue to provide quality, comprehensive medical care."
