For me, pediatric cardiology weaves together the best of two medical fields. Cardiology offers a unique opportunity to synthesize basic scientific principles with real-life scenarios. Meanwhile, pediatrics instills the privilege of advocacy on behalf of children and the importance of supporting them in pursuit of their personal goals. Being able to use all of this knowledge to help kids reach their potential is incredibly rewarding.

I see myself as a partner in my patients’ health, working closely with their families to ensure their well-being. My role as a physician involves not just diagnosis and treatment; I share in the decision-making process with patients and families, to help shoulder their burden. Anticipating potential complications and taking both proactive and preventive measures is a crucial part of this responsibility. I’m committed to working in the best interests of my patients and their families.
