Upon completion of his training,
Dr. Bornstein joined Cardiology Associates of Fairfield County
PC, a private practice consultative cardiology group, where
he became a principle partner and practiced invasive/interventional
cardiology for 20 years, from 1978-1998. During that time,
he was instrumental in the establishment of the Heart Institute
at St. Joseph Medical Center in Stamford, CT where he was
appointed associate director. The Heart Institute was recognized
not only for its cardiovascular expertise, but also, for its
technological, educational, and quality-of-care initiatives.
While in clinical practice, he served as a member of the Anthem
Blue Cross/Blue Shield Medical Advisory Committee, and as
a member of the Connecticut Hospital Association Panel of
Clinical Excellence in Cardiology, where he was intimately
involved with the establishment of clinical guidelines and
other quality of care initiatives.
After leaving private practice, Dr. Bornstein trained in cardiac
positron emission tomography (PET) at Columbia Presbyterian
Medical Center in 1999, and Nuclear Cardiology at St. Luke’s-Roosevelt
Hospital Center in 2000.
He has more than 25 years of clinical practice experience
in both the private practice setting, as well as in the academic
environment. Throughout his career, he has participated extensively
in the medical education process, believing this to be the
cornerstone for achieving ongoing clinical excellence. He
has been the recipient of numerous teaching awards. In recent
years, he has focused on the use of information technology
to facilitate medical education, patient care, and to provide
access to medical information at both the professional and
lay levels.
At Weill Cornell Medical College, he has been extensively
involved in many areas of graduate medical education including
training the pediatric house staff, medical house staff, and
cardiology fellows. He also teaches the Problem Based Learning
(PBL) course as well as the Medicine, Physicians and Society
(MPS) course for the first and second year medical students.
He also teaches evidence-based medicine as part of the Public
Health educational curriculum for medical students at Weill
Cornell Medical College. He has also developed content for
the medical school curriculum, as well as for CME and teleconferencing.
Yearly, he is responsible for the entire Adult Congenital
Heart Disease curriculum for the Cardiology Fellowship Training
Program at St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital Center in New
York City.
Additionally, he was involved in the deployment of a Telemedicine-based
Adult Congenital Heart Disease Service as a joint project
involving the divisions of Pediatric Cardiology at the Weill-Cornell
and Columbia Campuses of New York Presbyterian Hospital as
well as SUNY-Downstate College of Medicine.
As a specialist in preventive cardiology, valvular heart disease
and congenital heart disease, he, most recently, has been
in charge of developing a new telemedicine-based Adult Congenital
Heart Disease Initiative involving the Pediatric Cardiology
Divisions of Weill-Cornell Medical College, Babies & Children's
Hospital of New York at Columbia College of Physicians and
Surgeons and SUNY Downstate School of Medicine. He also has
expertise in noninvasive cardiac imaging, including nuclear
cardiology, cardiac positron emission tomography and echocardiography.
He has published papers in peer-reviewed journals as well
as chapters in textbooks in his areas of expertise. |
