Dr. James Pirruccello is a cardiologist who cares for patients with cardiovascular conditions, including aortic diseases (those involving the heart’s main artery). He has particular interests in disease prevention and genetics.

In his research, Pirruccello uses machine learning to create new ways of analyzing the heart; he applies genetics to better understand how cardiovascular disease progresses. He also develops tools for assessing the risk of cardiovascular disease before it occurs.

Pirruccello earned his medical degree at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He completed a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship in cardiovascular disease at Massachusetts General Hospital.

    Dr. Pirruccello was awesome - kind, clear and easy to follow communication, willing to engage in dialogue about alternatives to his proposals, patient with my many questions. I was dreading my cardiology appointment but his attitude turned it into a positive experience and I left with a clear understanding of what I should do next to improve my health.

    Don't want ppl to need a cardiologist but if they do? Dr Piruccelli is the one you want. Straightforward, excellent at what he does plus he's funny and easy to talk to. It's not a doctor experience I'm used to and it's just the best.
