About Scott F Reising, MD
Scott Reising, MD, FACC, is an independent, board-certified cardiologist in internal medicine and cardiology at Ascension Saint Thomas in McMinnville, Tennessee. Dr. Reising provides preventive, general, and consultative cardiovascular care for adults ages 18 and older.
Dr. Reising's clinical interests include preventive cardiology, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and dysrhythmias. He performs procedures such as transesophageal echocardiograms and electrical cardioversions. With more than 15 years of experience, he has focused his career on identifying cardiovascular risk early, often before symptoms develop, and tailoring evidence-based strategies to help reduce the likelihood of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure.
His philosophy of care is built on trust, prevention, and partnership. Dr. Reising believes patients deserve to understand their heart health and feel confident in the decisions they make together with their provider. He takes time to listen carefully, understand each patient's goals, and develop a care plan that supports both immediate needs and long-term health. By emphasizing prevention and early risk identification, he aims to help patients avoid serious heart conditions whenever possible. His goal is for every patient to leave their visit feeling heard, informed, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward a healthier future.
When not caring for patients, Dr. Reising enjoys reading and learning across a variety of subjects, spending time outdoors walking his two golden retrievers, and traveling with his wife, Christina.

Professional Statement
For me, being a cardiologist is about helping people live longer, healthier lives. Heart disease affects so many families, and I feel privileged to work with patients to better understand their risk and take steps to protect their heart health. I believe that when patients understand their condition and the choices available to them, they feel more confident and empowered in their care. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is meeting people from all walks of life and hearing their stories. Each patient is unique, and those relationships remind me that medicine is not just about treating disease, it is about caring for people. Helping patients prevent serious heart problems, improve their quality of life, and find peace of mind about their health is what makes this profession so meaningful to me.
