Ganga S. Moorthy

Overview

I am a pediatric infectious diseases specialist with a particular interest in global health and antimicrobial stewardship. I treat children with a variety of infections including those affecting the skin, bones and joints, blood, and respiratory tract. I also work in the hospital and our clinics to ensure that children receive the the appropriate choice, dose, duration, and route of antibiotic therapy. As a pediatrician, I believe in trying to do right by the children of the world, one child at a time. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy being outside (especially hiking and gardening), traveling, and college football.
