Sean Patrick Pinney is an American cardiologist and the Director of both the Advanced Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplant Program and the Pulmonary Hypertension Program at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. [1]

He is an Associate Professor of Cardiology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, [2] the author of over 20 publications in peer-reviewed medical journals and of multiple book chapters. He lectures frequently on the topic of cardiovascular disease.

Biography

Pinney was born in St. Louis, Missouri, graduating from St. Louis Priory School in 1986; he received his undergraduate degree from Georgetown University in 1990 and graduated from Georgetown University School of Medicine in 1994. He completed a residency at Deaconess Hospital, in Boston, Massachusetts and was Chief Resident in Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center until 1998. He was a fellow in Congestive Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplants and Chief Fellow in Cardiovascular Medicine at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York.

His practice has a primary focus on the understanding and treatment of cardiac allograft vasculopathy, a condition affecting about half of all transplant recipients by their fifth year. [3]

Pinney is a reviewer for the medical journals The Medical Letter, Mount Sinai Journal of Medicine, Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine, Transplantation and Transplant Immunology.
