Additional Information:

Dr. Bachour has been the Director of Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory and Interventional Cardiology of Hennepin County Medical Center since 2002. He is particularly interested in expediting Acute MI care and has pioneered the door-to-balloon program that decreases the time to open blocked arteries resulting in a heart attack.

When not working, Dr. Bachour enjoys family time with his wife and three "kids."
