Overview
I am a pediatric cardiologist, and I do cardiac catheterization procedures on children. Patients are referred to us either for diagnostic information or an intervention of a known condition. We have diagnostic tools that can help understand the defect better, the physiology of the defect, and the anatomy of the defect. We also perform interventions to correct heart defects. Having children of my own, I realize what an anxiety-provoking experience it is for families when they need medical care. The most important thing my team and I offer is that we are all specialized in pediatrics and our practice is focused on pediatric cardiology.

Duke Children's Health Center Cardiology Clinic
I am a pediatric cardiologist who specializes in cardiac imaging of the fetus and child. At the Fetal Diagnostic Center, I care for pregnant woman who come to be evaluated for fetal heart disease. I also see children in the Duke Children's Health Center Cardiology Clinic. I understand that a diagnosis of heart disease in pregnancy or childhood is overwhelming, and I strive to provide families with the knowledge and resources to navigate this difficult time and prepare for the future. We discuss the differences in their child’s heart, the care and monitoring their child will need, and what heart disease means for their child’s life long-term. In some cases, I have the privilege to care for children and their families from before birth until they are adults. Fortunately, most children with heart disease do very well, and it brings me joy to help children with heart disease grow and thrive.
