Jonathan Schwartz, MD

Jonathan Schwartz, MD, is currently an interventional cardiology fellow at the Stanford University School of Medicine (Stanford, CA), where he also completed his general cardiology training and served as chief fellow. He attended the University of Minnesota Medical School (Minneapolis, MN) and trained in internal medicine at the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine (Aurora, CO), where he served as chief medical resident. Schwartz previously blogged for the New England Journal of Medicine’s Journal Watch Insights on Residency website, chronicling his thoughts on residency training. He says he has “always been drawn to intervention because of its elegance. The ability to perform increasingly complex procedures via such small incisions is fascinating.” Following fellowship, he plans to seek an academic interventional faculty appointment that enables him to focus on innovation. He completed the Stanford Biodesign Innovation fellowship this past year and plans to use these skills throughout his professional career. In his free time, Schwartz enjoys alpine skiing, hiking, running, tennis, and cycling.
