    About the presenter<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"Early in his training, Michael Ginsburg, MD, became inspired by the field of Vascular and Interventional Radiology and its innovative, minimally invasive approach to delivering patient-centered care, in a variety of ailments and diseases, with great outcomes. Dr. Ginsburg says that interventional radiology is a rapidly growing field that has continued to evolve all throughout his career, contributing to the advancement of medicine and allowing him to provide treatment options to his patients that previously were considered impossible.<\/p>\n

    Dr. Ginsburg was exposed to the medical profession growing up, since both of his grandparents were physicians. His grandfather, a cardiologist, was a role model for him. \u201cHe approached medicine as a true vocation. He loved taking care of his patients \u2013 with personalized attention, compassion, and dedication,\u201d he says. \u201cHis ability to not only heal the physical ailments, but also be sympathetic to the human spirit, while being an expert in his field, inspired me to go into medicine.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Each patient Dr. Ginsburg sees receives his full attention. While he practices evidence-based medicine that is current and up to date, he maintains the perspective that even when treating the same disease, each case is unique. \u201cMy philosophy is to give every patient the attention they deserve, treating the whole person in a variety of clinical settings and partnering with them as they continue their healing journey,\u201d he says. His priority is to educate and engage his patients from the first moment he meets them. He takes the time to explain the clinical reasoning behind the work-up required to make an accurate, timely and patient-centered diagnosis. Dr.\u00a0Ginsburg believes that making every effort to ensure that his patients are well-informed about their own health reduces their anxiety and builds trust. Moreover, an increased understanding puts patients in a better position to make informed decisions regarding their health care, leading to improved outcomes.<\/p>\n

    Dr. Ginsburg is aware that most people aren\u2019t familiar with Vascular and Interventional Radiology. When asked what it is, he explains that VIR is minimally invasive surgery performed under image guidance, done through a pinhole. Most people require no hospital stay and receive their care on an outpatient basis.<\/p>\n

    Dr. Ginsburg earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and his Doctor of Medicine degree at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. He completed Radiology residency training at the University of Chicago, followed by a fellowship in Vascular and Interventional Radiology at Stanford, California. He is double board certified in Diagnostic Radiology and in Vascular and Interventional Radiology. Prior to joining Beacon Health, Dr. Ginsburg practiced in Illinois and Wisconsin, with a focus on minimally invasive treatment of vascular disease, interventional oncology, liver disease, as well as men’s and women’s health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
