Dr. Sundrani graduated from a premier medical school in India, continuing his post-graduate training in Chicago where he received the Clinical Skills & Scholarship Award for two consecutive years. Specializing in interventional cardiology and peripheral vascular disease, Dr. Sundrani devoted his final years of training to mastering the use of stents and balloon angioplasty. For him, alongside travelling the world with family, treating both cardiac and vascular disease with minimally invasive techniques is incredibly fulfilling.
Dr. Sundrani has been practicing for over 20 years in the Fresno/Clovis Area. In this time, he feels fortunate that to have helped many families with life, brain and limb-saving procedures. In fact, he was the first in the Valley to do carotid stent procedures in the Central Valley. He has championed various Coronary (High Risk PCI, Rotablator, Impella, CTO, Radial Interventions, etc.), Structural (Mitral clip, TAVR, ASD/PFO, etc.), Peripheral (Iliac/SFA/Tibial Interventions, AAA, carotid stent/TCAR etc.), and Device (AlCD /pacemaker / Micra/ AVIER etc) related procedures. Families over the years have trusted their grandparents, parents, as well as adult children to him, and he feels blessed to have earned their trust.
Dr. Sundrani also co-directs the Community Regional Medical Center program for left ventricular assist device (LVAD)/advanced heart failure, the only program of its kind in the Central Valley: 24/7, 365 days a year care for younger and advanced heart failure/ older LVAD patients with destination therapy. Due to his involvement in patient care with advanced heart failure/LVAD and heart transplant recipients, he has built relationships with major academic centers like UCSF, Stanford, Sutter, Cedars-Sinai, UCSD, and more. He often co-manages advanced heart failure patients who are either being worked up for heart transplant or are recovering from heart transplant.
In addition to clinical duties, Dr. Sundrani avidly furthers clinical research. He was selected as a principal investigator by the California Department of Public Health to run a pilot PCI program at Clovis Community Hospital from 2010 to 2023. Under his supervision and care, Clovis Community hospital outcome data was best in the State, and provided the groundwork for a new CA State Law which now makes it possible for underserved communities in the Central Valley to access these lifesaving procedures. He also continues to participate, in various other clinical trials which continue to be published in peer review journals.
Dr. Sundrani strongly believes in bringing new technology to the Central Valley so that our patients don’t have to travel hundreds of miles for great care. He, alongside his colleagues, are instrumental in continuing to bring the safest, most effective, and least invasive innovations in cardiac care (e.g., lead extraction for infected or malfunctioning pacemaker/defibrillator leads, implanted heart pumps for heart failure patients (LVAD), and aortic valve replacements without open heart surgery (TAVR)) to patients here in the Valley.
