    Kids go through so many stages and they need someone to coach them at every step — and so do parents. Parents always need someone to reassure them, give them advice and also praise them. That’s the part I enjoy most. I also have experience caring for kids around the world so I love taking care of families from different cultures and backgrounds. Growing up, I was the eldest of five siblings so I was helping my mother with them early on. Because of that I never had to push my heart in any way to care for children. Now that I’m a mother myself, I have been caring for kids all through my life. So it comes very naturally. When parents have newborns I focus on the prevention of diseases and accidents, because prevention is better than cure. I also help them find developmentally appropriate things to do with their children. I love caring for teens as well, and I try always to counsel them so they can manage their time and pressures in school. I want to help them make good decisions for their path in life. I try as much as I can to guide them and to answer every question. As a child’s pediatrician I’m usually the first stop for parents so my ability to be broad in my thinking is important. Every age brings its challenges and I try to cover as much as I can together with them. Specific things I try to advise parents about are nutrition issues, and in Florida we have water everywhere so water safety and sunscreen is also critical.   I also enjoy taking care of families from different cultures because I myself came from a distant place so, we really understand each other.

    I was born into an agricultural family and grew up on a produce farm in California. But I decided I wanted to branch out into something different than our family business. That's how I discovered medicine as a profession. It's a wonderful thing to do what you love and feel like you can make a difference in people's lives. It wasn't my initial plan to work in pediatrics. But being a big kid myself, it was natural for me to gravitate toward working with children. I like being there to help them. Kids get sick through no fault of their own. My philosophy is that we owe them everything we can do to help them feel better. My clinical focus is treating children with airway obstructions, whether due to asthma or for some other reason. Most of all, I want to help as many kids as I can to live happier, healthier lives.In addition to the other expertises listed, Dr. Kanamori has expertise in treating:Allergic fungal sinusitisCongenital airway anomaliesLaryngomalacia Since we moved to Orlando, my family and I have gotten involved with Give Kids the World Village, a nonprofit resort where children with life-threatening illness and their families are treated to free storybook vacations. We decided as a family to spend time there helping the kids enjoy their experience. Dr. Kanamori is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Hypochondroplasia. His top areas of expertise are Enlarged Adenoids, Otitis, Low Nasal Bridge, and Nasal Septal Hematoma.

    I was raised in Southern California surfing Malibu Beach and skiing Tahoe. I enjoyed biology and physical sciences as a child, and graduated from UCLA with a BS in Biology. Before entering medical school, I worked as an emergency medicine technician. I’ve practiced pediatric pulmonary and sleep medicine in Central Florida for over 20 years. I experience immense satisfaction from treating and interacting with children of all ages. Every time I can get a child to smile and make a child feel better, it gives me a special feeling in my heart. I’m passionate about access to health care for all children and providing patients with cutting-edge medical care, technology, and therapy. I try to make a difference by staying educated on the best pulmonary and sleep medicine management and treatments for my patients, as well as participating in research studies to explore additional management strategies.

    I was born and raised in Wisconsin. Growing up, I was athletic, studious, and inquisitive. I’ve always been fascinated with anatomy. My own medical experiences with sports injuries and the physicians who cared for me were instrumental in helping me choose my career. I love caring for children. They have so much energy and an incredible ability to adapt and recover. They are honest – sometimes brutally, sometimes hilariously. At times, it’s like a double-edged sword – there is great joy and deep pain. But the parents and patients inspire me and keep me going. I’m passionate about innovation, particularly within my specialty – pediatric interventional radiology – which provides new and better therapies for kids. I’m also passionate about ensuring that the disadvantaged pediatric population has the opportunity to receive the best possible healthcare as everyone else. Taking the time to be in the moment and see each patient from the view of the family, both medically and socially.

    I grew up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. From an early age, I loved learning new things and displayed an intellectual curiosity about different issues related to health conditions. Also, my father was a pediatrician who gave me the opportunity to follow his work. Having that chance to witness how rewarding it was to help families, captured my interest as well. He was my inspiration. Children have a pure appreciation for the work we do. I believe if you have a positive impact on the health of a child, you can impact the future of that child as well. Most of the children we care for don’t bring on their conditions – it’s out of their control. I enjoy the challenge of interacting with children and helping them to understand their condition. I’m passionate about finding which hormonal abnormality is behind the child’s signs and symptoms. I also embrace the challenge of finding the best therapy to treat each condition. I’m a big believer in communicating with the patient and family. And, I try to make myself accessible to address their concerns and needs. Dr. Carakushansky is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Hypochondroplasia. His top areas of expertise are Pediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency, Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD), Short Stature (Growth Disorders), and Precocious Puberty.

    What is the definition of Hypochondroplasia?

    Hypochondroplasia is a form of short-limbed dwarfism. This condition affects the conversion of cartilage into bone (a process called ossification), particularly in the long bones of the arms and legs. Hypochondroplasia is similar to another skeletal disorder called achondroplasia, but the features tend to be milder.

    When should I see a Hypochondroplasia doctor near Orlando, FL?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Hypochondroplasia doctor near Orlando, FL?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Hypochondroplasia doctors near Orlando, FL?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Hypochondroplasia doctors near Orlando, FL?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Hypochondroplasia doctor near Orlando, FL?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Hypochondroplasia doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Hypochondroplasia doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Hypochondroplasia doctor near Orlando, FL?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Hypochondroplasia doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Hypochondroplasia doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Hypochondroplasia doctors near Orlando, FL?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Hypochondroplasia doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find a Hypochondroplasia doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Hypochondroplasia doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
