Matthew Katz, MD

Matthew S. Katz, MD, is a fellowship-trained interventional cardiologist with Atlantic Medical Group. Board-certified in internal medicine and cardiovascular disease by the American Board of Internal Medicine, he has expertise treating patients with a wide variety of cardiovascular conditions using small, flexible tubes called catheters to detect, reach and repair damaged or weakened vessels, open blockages in narrowed arteries, and insert stents to keep the arteries open.

Dr. Katz believes in providing compassionate care to his patients using minimally invasive techniques to treat coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, valvular heart disease, and structural heart disease. These techniques prevent the need for open-heart surgery, reducing risks and leading to a faster recovery for patients.
