Dr. Aparna S. Rege

As a physician, I care for children who may have cancer or a type of blood disease. I work with them and their families from the initial evaluation to establish a diagnosis, all the way through developing and carrying out a treatment plan. As we work together, I prioritize listening to their concerns, understanding their values, and working as a team. I also value transparency and honesty as we share information along the pathway toward healing. I consider it a tremendous honor and privilege to work with children and their parents, and I strive to do everything I can to help.

I became an orthopaedic surgeon because I enjoy the mechanical nature of how joints, bones and muscles work together. I chose to focus on treating children because it provides me with an opportunity to make a difference in their health now, and for the rest of their lives. As I’ve entered the later stages of my career, I have had the privilege of seeing patients who I treated come back to me as adults seeking treatment for their own children. I find it very fulfilling to see how the treatments I gave the parent helped them become a healthy, fully functional adult. I believe that being a good doctor means treating the “whole” patient, rather than focusing only on individual parts of the body. I enjoy working with my patients to make sure they are getting all the treatments they need to get and stay well. In my spare time I enjoy photography, hiking and backpacking.
