Dr. Nappi is a fellowship trained interventional cardiologist with 18 years of experience. He and his team treat conditions related to the heart and blood vessels. They provide minimally invasive procedures in which a thin, flexible tube called a catheter is inserted into a blood vessel to address blockages. These procedures often result in less discomfort and faster recovery times than other treatment options.

Dr. Adelstein is the most recent addition to Bassett’s cardiac leadership team, bringing 18 years of experience as a cardiologist. Dr. Adelstein leads the electrophysiology (EP) team – which identifies and treats electrical malfunctions of the heart using defibrillators, pacemakers, electrocardiograms (EKGs), and other devices. These types of heart problems can cause irregular heartbeats, heart palpitations, or fainting episodes.

Dr. Adelstein earned his medical degree from Georgetown University School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. and completed residency at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, PA. He completed fellowships in Cardiac Electrophysiology & Cardiovascular Disease at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center in Pittsburgh, PA.
