No doing an MD in General Medicine followed by a DM in Cardiology does not qualify you to perform open heart surgeries. That path leads to becoming an Interventional Cardiologist - who treats heart conditions using non surgical catheter based procedures (like angioplasty/stents). To perform open heart surgeries you must train as a Cardiothoracic Surgeon.
