About

Dr. Ryan W. Chiu is a fellowship-trained, board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon who specializes in aortic disease with the MemorialCare Medical Group in Long Beach.

His clinical interests include aortic disease and coronary artery disease with an interest in minimally invasive procedures for aortic pathology and heart valve disease.

He received his medical degree from Albany Medical College followed by a residency in general surgery at Stony Book University Hospital. He then completed a fellowship in cardiothoracic surgery at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York City. Dr. Chiu is board-certified in cardiothoracic surgery by the American Board of Thoracic Surgery.

His interest in aortic disease stems from the vast pathologies and different manifestations involved. He is actively involved with educating consumers and physicians on the breadth of conditions – aortic aneurysms (ascending aorta, arch, or descending aorta), aortic dissection (type A, type B) – and treatments available.

Dr. Chiu enjoys the great outdoors and skis, hikes, and golfs in his free time.
