Dr. Malcolm Dorman, MD

Dr. Dorman, is a world-renowned cardiovascular surgeon who was recruited to JFK Medical Center to become Medical Director of Cardiac Surgery. He was previously at Miami Heart Institute for 25 years where he served as Chair of Cardiothoracic Surgery and Co-Chair of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine.

In 1972, he was one of two residents selected to train with the renowned heart surgeon Michael Debakey, M.D., in Houston, Texas. In 1975, he was associated with Frank Spencer, M.D., and George Reed, M.D., as a clinical research scientist at NYU Medical Center.

Dr. Dorman is recognized for his research and clinical work in repairing mitral valves. He is also recognized for using all arterial conduits in bypass surgery and has demonstrated their excellent long-term results. Dr. Dorman was honored by his medical school, receiving his distinguished alumnus award in 1997. He is currently involved in the angiogenesis phase one clinical trial, which uses the human growth factor to generate new blood vessels in patients considered nonsurgical candidates. His last two years at JFK placed him under 1 percent mortality rate for coronary surgery and zero percent for straight aortic and mitral valve surgery, whether repair or replacement.
