Personal Statement
The care of the child with congenital heart disease is a privilege and honor. I work together with our Anesthesia, Intensive Care, Cardiology and Nursing colleagues to provide world class care to our patients. Our patient’s become part of our growing family and as a surgeon, I value the relentless attention to detail both during our patient’s surgical procedure and postoperative recovery.
Clinical Interests:
Newborn congenital cardiac surgery
Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia with Major Aortopulmonary Collaterals (MAPCAS)
Off Bypass Aortic Arch repair on premature, low birthweight neonates
Research Interests:
Computational modeling of Congenital Heart Disease
Skill Acquisition in Cardiac Surgery
