Overview

Dr. Tai is excited to call the beautiful PNW home after living in many parts of the country, including Boston, New York, Denver and California. Her clinical interests include neonatal surgery, minimally invasive surgery, congenital anomalies, chest wall deformities and global surgery.

Dr. Tai and her partners prioritize access to provide rapid care for children with surgical needs.

Her top areas of expertise are Gastroschisis, Splenomegaly, Thyroid Nodule, and Appendicitis.
