Biography

Michael Nanna, MD, is an interventional cardiologist specializing in coronary interventions, with a focus on treating older adults who have multiple chronic conditions. He provides treatments aimed at managing heart disease in simple, patient-friendly ways, ensuring that complex conditions are addressed comprehensively.

As an assistant professor of internal medicine at Yale School of Medicine, Dr. Nanna's research is centered on enhancing risk prediction, optimizing treatment utilization, and facilitating shared decision-making for older adults with cardiovascular concerns. His work includes developing predictive models to assess the risk of future cardiovascular and cognitive issues, thereby aiding in more informed treatment decisions.

“Preventive medication decisions in older adults are inherently more complex than in younger populations,” he explains. “The first step toward informed shared decision-making is an accurate estimate of upfront risk to inform potential benefits of therapy.”

Dr. Nanna received his medical training from Stony Brook University School of Medicine and completed his internal medicine residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. He pursued further training in cardiology and interventional cardiology at Duke University Medical Center.
