Dr. Hari P. Garg of Brockport has been designated as a specialist in Clinical Hypertension. Dr. Garg was one of only 194 physicians designated in the United States and Canada during the ASH Designation program's second phase.

Dr. Garg has been practicing Internal Medicine at Lakeside since 1973.

This program was formed in 1998 by the American Society of Hypertension to recognize those physicians with expert knowledge and skill in the management of clinical hypertension and related diseases.

As well as having a credential review, physicians must pass a four hour exam in order to be granted the designation for 10 years. The exam was developed with the National Board of Medical Examiners.
