His areas of clinical focus include carotid artery disease, complex coronary interventions, PFO, ASD closure, valvular heart disease, TAVR, MitraClip, and venous disease. For Dr. Overly, the greatest satisfaction originates in the interpersonal relationships and trust that develop in patients for whom he provides care for.

Furthering his training, he performed fellowships in both cardiovascular medicine and interventional cardiology at The Cleveland Clinic Foundation in 2006 and 2008, respectively. 

Helping patients maintain a heart-healthy life, the doctor is board certified in cardiovascular disease and interventional cardiology by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). The ABIM is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world.

Interventional cardiology is a branch of cardiology that deals specifically with the catheter based treatment of structural heart diseases. An interventional cardiologist is a cardiologist with one to two years of additional education and training in diagnosing and treating cardiovascular disease as well as congenital (present at birth) and structural heart conditions through catheter-based procedures, such as angioplasty and stenting.
