An active member in Cincinnati's medical community since 1966, Dr Sanghvi served as medical director from 1971 to 1990 for the division of cardiology at Jewish Hospital, where he was responsible for introducing what now represents the core techniques used in the cardiology field.

"It has been a thrill to witness the evolution and dramatic growth of what we refer to today as modern cardiology resulting in significant improvements for cardiovascular disease-related outcomes," says Dr Sanghvi, now an adjunct professor of clinical medicine within the division of cardiovascular health and disease at UC.

"I'm delighted to be the first American of Indian origin to endow this position in a city and institution that has been a part of so many historical firsts," he said.
