Overview
I am a pediatric cardiologist and help care for children with congenital and acquired heart conditions. I have advanced training in non-invasive imaging modalities, including echocardiography, MRI, and CT to provide accurate and detailed assessments of cardiovascular health in children. These tools are invaluable in evaluating heart conditions without the need for invasive procedures, making them ideal for our youngest patients. I prioritize a personalized approach, understanding that each child’s heart condition is unique. Outside of the clinical setting, I am passionate about advancing the field through research and education. I believe in a team-based approach to deliver the best possible outcomes for my patients.
