Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a fellow in cardiovascular diseases from India in the field of cardiovascular medicine. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized area of some of the most common cardiovascular diseases in the United States. His work had resulted in 24 peer-reviewed scientific articles (9 of them first-authored), 3 book-chapters, and 16 presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 139 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 9 manuscripts for at least 5 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] showed that piecemeal treatment strategies were viable, ending the medical dilemma. Doctors no longer are conflicted when treating patients who have both of these conditions, and the health outcomes for these patients has thereby been much improved” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of cardiovascular medicine, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 7 months and 15 days.
