Why I Treat Children

I enjoy helping children live their lives to the highest potential and allowing them to get to be “kids” as much as possible, even if they have a chronic medical condition.

What I'm Passionate About

I’m passionate about improving children’s heart function so they can live their lives and not feel that there is any issue with their heart while being on as few medicines as is reasonable.

How I Try to Make A Difference

Knowing there is still a lot of gray area in medicine, I try to implement a true shared decision-making model with families. I will be up front and share all the information I have while listening to all the concerns of the patients and families to try to come to the best long-term solution.
