Asif Ali Fakhri, MD

About Me
I am an American Board of Nuclear Medicine–certified physician with formal residency training in nuclear medicine and extensive clinical experience in hospital-based medicine. My professional interests include PET/CT, scintigraphy, and molecular imaging, with a strong focus on applying advanced imaging techniques to accurate diagnosis and patient care.

I completed my Nuclear Medicine Residency at the University at Buffalo, where I served as Chief Resident during my final year. Throughout my career, I have combined active clinical practice with progressive medical leadership, including serving as Director of Medical Services and Chief Medical Officer.

I also have a strong academic interest in nuclear medicine and have authored multiple peer-reviewed publications covering PET/CT, hepatobiliary scintigraphy, MIBG imaging, and other applications of molecular imaging.

My Philosophy of Care
I believe that high-quality medical care should combine clinical experience, evidence-based decision-making, and careful attention to each patient’s individual circumstances. In nuclear medicine, I value the ability of functional and molecular imaging to provide clinically meaningful information that can complement other diagnostic approaches. My goal is to deliver thoughtful, accurate, and patient-centered care while maintaining the highest professional and clinical standards.
