Glenn T. Leonard

Glenn T. Leonard, M.D. serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor (Voluntary) in the Department of Pediatrics, Division of Cardiology at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. He specializes in pediatric interventional cardiology for children and adults with congenital heart disease through UR Medicine and Accountable Health Partners, currently accepting new patients in the Buffalo region.

Education:

• MD, St. George's University School of Medicine (Grenada), 1997
• Internship & Residency in Pediatrics, Children's Hospital (1997-2000)
• Fellowship in Pediatric Cardiology, University of Florida College of Medicine (2000-2003)
• Fellowship in Pediatric Cardiology, The Institute for Rehabilitation and Research (2003-2004)

Dr. Leonard's research focuses on innovative catheter-based interventions for congenital heart defects, with expertise in balloon valvuloplasty, transcatheter closure techniques, and management of complex structural heart disease. His work emphasizes procedural refinement to minimize complications while maximizing long-term outcomes for pediatric and adult congenital heart patients.

Analysis of his publications (2004-2019) reveals consistent contributions to interventional cardiology methodology, particularly in pulmonary valve interventions, atrial septal defect management, and congenital heart defect palliation. His 2019 multicenter study on balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty outcomes represents significant longitudinal evidence in the field.

Scientific Awards:

• Golden Apple Teaching Award nominee (2006)
• Academic Scholarship - Four Year Full Tuition (1988-1992)

Dr. Leonard maintains active clinical practice in pediatric interventional cardiology but has not published information regarding student mentoring or research grant acquisitions. His work appears focused on clinical innovation and procedural refinement within the congenital heart disease specialty.

No specific laboratory or dedicated research team affiliations are documented in available sources, suggesting integration within broader institutional cardiology programs at the University of Rochester Medical Center.
