Biography
Dr. Rizcallah Deek is an invasive non-interventional cardiologist.
He completed his medical studies in the University of Aleppo and then moved to the United States to pursue his training. He completed his internal medicine residency at the University of Central Florida in Orlando where he served as one of the first home-grown chief residents. His passion in cardiology led him to carry his dream as he completed his cardiology training at Orlando Health Heart and Vascular Institute.
Dr. Deek is interested in diagnosing and treating a variety of cardiac diseases through his clinical experience with the aid of echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, cardiac CT and cardiac catheterization skills he developed during his training and manages his patients according to the most updated treatment guidelines.
Dr. Deek is kind, caring and multilingual. He is loved by his patients and his team members.
“Cardiology is the most interesting and rewarding field in medicine where you combine the knowledge and the skills to diagnose and treat the patients. Helping and guiding my patients manage their disease and seeing them improve is one of the most enjoyable aspects of my practice.”
In his free time, Dr. Deek enjoys spending time with his wife and two boys, playing piano, cooking as well as building Lego sets with his boys.
