Cardiovascular Specialists Of Frederick

What Cardiovascular Specialists Of Frederick does

Cardiovascular Specialists of Frederick is a private cardiology medical practice headquartered at 180 Thomas Johnson Drive in Frederick, Maryland, operating two adjacent office suites (Annex A and Annex B) and serving the Frederick community and surrounding areas. The practice provides a comprehensive cardiovascular service line spanning non-invasive diagnostics — echocardiography, nuclear stress imaging, dedicated cardiac PET scanning, vascular ultrasound, and electrocardiography (EKG, Holter, event monitors) — through to invasive and interventional procedures including cardiac catheterization, coronary and peripheral artery stenting, pacemaker and defibrillator (ICD) implantation and follow-up, and electrophysiology procedures such as cardioversion and catheter ablation. All major diagnostic modalities are IAC (Intersocietal Accreditation Commission) accredited, and the practice maintains 24/7 interventional coverage at Frederick Memorial Hospital through onsite heart interventionalists.

The practice operates a triple-layer patient evaluation model in which a medical assistant, nurse, and physician sequentially assess each patient, and runs a multi-vendor device clinic covering Medtronic, St. Jude/Abbott, Boston Scientific, and Biotronik pacemakers and defibrillators. The physician team includes Drs. Aimee Park (M.D., F.A.C.C.), Nirmal K. Shah (M.D., F.A.C.C.), and previously Dr. Sumit Duggal until January 1, 2026, supported by nurse practitioners (CRNP), physician assistants (PA-C), and a Johns Hopkins-affiliated vascular medicine physician (Dr. Maya J. Salameh). The practice has transitioned away from hospital-based care to focus on office-based cardiology, with Johns Hopkins cardiologists now managing hospitalized patients at Frederick Health Hospital under a clinical coordination arrangement.

Commercially, the practice is a fee-for-service healthcare provider billing insurance carriers (Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial plans) and patients for professional services, with co-pays collected at the time of service and self-pay discounts available. Patient acquisition is driven primarily by physician referral networks (with a dedicated referral portal and fax-based exchange), insurance network participation, the practice website, and bilingual (English/Spanish) patient-facing materials. Digital infrastructure includes the NextGen PXP Patient Portal (via MedFusion) for secure messaging and records access, and Phreesia for online patient payments. The practice is privately held, with no disclosed external investment, and competes in the Frederick, MD cardiology market against other independent cardiology groups and the now-launched Summit Cardiovascular Care.

Direct peers

• Capital Cardiology Associates: Private cardiology practice in the greater Washington DC / Maryland suburbs offering diagnostic, interventional, and EP services — directly comparable in service mix and private-practice delivery model.
• Virginia Heart: Large private cardiology group serving Northern Virginia with comprehensive diagnostic, interventional, and EP services across multiple offices — the closest large-scale analog to a multi-modality community cardiology practice like Cardiovascular Specialists of Frederick.
• Cardiology Associates of Fredericksburg: Mid-size private cardiology group in the Virginia/Maryland region offering diagnostics, interventional, and device services — a comparable private community cardiology practice serving a similar mid-Atlantic suburban catchment.

Broad incumbents

• Adventist HealthCare Cardiology: Hospital-system-affiliated cardiology services in the Maryland suburban market — provides an integrated outpatient-and-inpatient cardiology alternative that competes for Frederick-area referrals.
• Inova Heart and Vascular Institute: Large hospital-based cardiology and cardiac surgery program in Northern Virginia offering diagnostics, interventional, EP, and cardiothoracic surgery — represents the integrated health-system model that community cardiology groups increasingly compete against.
• MedStar Heart & Vascular Institute: Hospital-system cardiology program across MedStar's Maryland/DC hospitals offering the full spectrum of cardiovascular services — a broad incumbent whose employed-cardiology expansion directly competes for the same Frederick-region referrals.
• Johns Hopkins Medicine Cardiology: Academic cardiology division that now manages Cardiovascular Specialists' hospitalized patients at Frederick Health Hospital — both a strategic partner and a structural competitor whose employed cardiologists could capture incremental procedural volume over time.

Emerging players

• Summit Cardiovascular Care, LLC: Newly formed cardiology practice in Frederick, MD launched by Dr. Sumit Duggal after his January 2026 departure from Cardiovascular Specialists of Frederick — directly competes for the same local patient panel.
