Get to know Cardiologist Dr. Majdi Ashchi, who serves patients in Jacksonville, Florida. 

Dr. Ashchi is a world-renowned and trusted expert in heart and vascular diseases. He is available to referring physicians and patients for consultative cardiology, interventional cardiology, endovascular medicine, vascular medicine, and electrophysiology.

From the early age of six when his same-age cousin had to have open-heart surgery, he knew medicine was his passion. While waiting, along with his parents and family to make sure his playmate was going to live, the doctor asked him what he wanted to become, and he answered a heart doctor. His lifelong passion became his purpose.

As the Founder of Ashchi Heart & Vascular Center in Jacksonville, Florida, Dr. Ashchi treats patients with heart and vascular diseases with the expertise, care, and compassion that each one of them deserves. Continuing his reputation for excellence in patient care based on mutual trust and respect, he and his professional staff are dedicated to providing high quality, comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for patients experiencing diseases of the heart and vascular system (both arteries and veins). They proudly serve patients in these Northeast Florida counties (Duval, Clay, St. Johns, Flagler) and the following cities: Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach, Mayport, Ponte Vedra Beach, Vilano Beach, St. Johns, Flagler Beach, Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island, St. Augustine, St. Augustine Beach, Orange Park, Hilliard, Yulee, Callahan, Macclenny, Baldwin Middleburg, St. Johns, Keystone Heights, Green Cove Springs, Palatka, Palm Coast, Daytona, Gainesville, Lake City, Ocala, Orlando, and well as the following cities in Southeast Georgia: Brunswick, Sea Island, Jekyll Island, Macon, St. Marys, Waycross, Folkston, Valdosta, Thomasville, and Douglas.

Among his academic appointments, Dr. Ashchi serves as an Instructor at Nova Southeastern University, College of Health Care Sciences’ Physician Assistant Program, and as an Adjunct Clinical Professor at Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. 

Back in 1989, he earned his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He then went on to complete his residency in internal medicine at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in 1993, followed by his fellowship in cardiovascular disease at the Case Western Reserve University College of Medicine in 1996. He also completed extra months of training in vascular and endovascular medicine training at Lenox Hill Hospital, Arizona Heart Institute, and Milwaukee Hospital, as well as a fellowship in interventional cardiology at the University of Connecticut, Hartford Hospital in 1997. 

With regard to his noteworthy accomplishments, Dr. Ashchi is board-certified in both internal medicine and cardiovascular disease by the American Board of Internal Medicine, which is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world. He is also a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and a Fellow of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions.

The field includes medical diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease, and electrophysiology.
