About the Author:

Dr. George Sojka knew at 9 years old, when his father died of a heart attack, that he wanted to prevent the same tragedy from striking other families. Today, he is a cardiologist helping patients every day at Methodist Physicians Clinic Heart Consultants.

"My goal is to give patients a thorough exam with compassionate understanding," said Dr. Sojka. "I enjoy working with Methodist because of the sense of compassion everyone here provides along with our collegial team approach to care."

Dr. Sojka attended medical school at the University of Toronto and went through residency at Queens University in Kingston, Ontario. He has a specific interest in echocardiogram - also known as cardiac ultrasound. In his free time, Dr. Sojka enjoys traveling and has a love of history.
