“Dr. Jahangir’s willingness to engage in both clinical and administrative tasks makes him a valued colleague and leader for his team,” said Dr. Don Jansen, Vice President of Medical Affairs at Elkhart General. “He is thoughtful and analytical in problem solving, working always for exceptional patient outcomes, methods for improvement and collegial education. Given the central role of hospitalist care, his leadership and demeanor are greatly respected by all here at EGH.”
