Experience and background
I am part of a small multi-disciplinary team dedicated to the care of patients with congenital heart disease. I provide anesthesia care for procedures ranging from complex open heart surgery to radiological studies.
My clinical interests include developing and refining ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocols through multicenter collaboration in order to decrease complications and recovery time after congenital cardiac surgery.
