About Me

Dr. Chelsea Ngongang is a cardiologist with clinical interests in adult cardiovascular medicine and disease prevention, women’s health, and heart disease in pregnancy. She joined WakeMed Heart & Vascular after finishing her cardiology fellowship training at Drexel University in Philadelphia PA. She received her internal medicine residency training at Johns Hopkins Medicine in Baltimore MD. Her roots are in North Carolina, where she was born and raised in Charlotte NC before attending NC State University for her Chemistry degree and she earned her medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel-Hill School of Medicine.

Dr. Ngongang provides compassionate cardiovascular care focused on the uniqueness and dignity of each patient she serves. She invests time to build a rapport with patients and works to help them set goals to live their healthiest, fullest life. Her favorite quote: “It's much more important to know the sort of patient that has a disease than what sort of disease the patient has". Sir William Osler.

In her free time, Dr. Ngongang enjoys traveling (near and far) to experience the people, food and sites. She also enjoys the arts—she paints and loves live music performances.
