Dr. Edinrin Obasare has been fascinated by the study of living organisms ever since he took biology classes in high school. Born in England and raised in Jamaica, Dr. Obasare graduated from the University of the West Indies Medical School, he graduated from SUNY Downstate here in New York, and completed a fellowship in cardiology at Albert Einstein Medical Center, followed by a second fellowship in cardiac electrophysiology (treating heart rhythm disorders) at Yale University School of Medicine. He is board certified in cardiac electrophysiology, general cardiology, nuclear cardiology, echocardiography, hypertension, and internal medicine. Yet through it all, apart from his interest in the science of medicine, he became even more attracted to the art of medicine.

Dr. Obasare, returned to New York to join the Auburn Heart and Vascular Institute in summer 2024. Throughout his career he has performed over 1 thousand cardiac electrophysiology procedures including hundreds of device procedures (pacemakers, biventricular devices, defibrillators, device extractions, and left atrial appendage closure devices). He has also performed hundreds of arrhythmia ablation electrophysiology procedures for heart rhythm disorders such as supraventricular tachycardia (fast heart rates from the top of the heart), and atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythms from the top of the heart that can cause blood clots and strokes). On a personal note, he enjoys spending time with friends and family and enjoys playing music.

Dr. Obasare prides himself in delivering highly specialized top notch cardiac health care to his patients. He values his patients and believes that complete attention to every aspect of their health is paramount. He joins his colleagues here at the Auburn Heart and Vascular Institute in providing access and delivering this excellent care locally and regionally, in our beautiful community.

Dr. Christopher Scibelli is a board-certified vascular and general surgeon with a distinguished career spanning both military and civilian medicine. He earned his B.A. in Biology cum laude from Franklin and Marshall College and went on to receive his M.D. from Temple University School of Medicine, supported by a Navy Health Professions Scholarship. He completed a transitional internship at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and served as a Battalion Surgeon with the U.S. Marine Corps before completing his general surgery residency and chief residency at Christiana Care Health Services. He then pursued advanced training with a fellowship in vascular surgery at Eastern Virginia Medical School and Vascular and Transplant Specialists, P.C.

Dr. Scibelli’s professional experience includes over two decades of practice in both academic and clinical settings, including service as a staff vascular surgeon at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and as an associate professor at the University of Rochester Medical Center.

He also deployed during Operation Iraqi Freedom and has been actively involved in clinical teaching and mentoring.

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Scibelli has contributed significantly to the field through scholarly activity, presenting and publishing on topics such as endovascular procedures, critical limb ischemia, and complex venous disease. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a member of the Society for Vascular Surgery and the Society for Vascular Ultrasound. His professional interests focus on chronic limb-threatening ischemia, cerebrovascular disease, and complex venous conditions, and his dedication extends to improving patient care, education, and vascular surgery practice.
