Heike Daldrup-Link, MD

As a pediatric radiologist with a focus on oncology imaging, I feel motivated knowing that my work truly matters, that I can help a child get the right diagnosis and hopefully suffer a little less. Having experienced the hospital environment as a doctor, patient and family member, I try to be a source of compassion and support for my patients, giving them the security they seek.

I also love the science part of my work — discovering new technologies, identifying areas of improvement, and creating solutions to critical clinical problems. Our ultimate goal is to move towards better diagnoses and better treatments.

I feel blessed to be part of a team of incredibly bright and talented researchers and students. Together we are able to do great work; I feel proud whenever we accomplish our goals. We are here to make a positive difference in the lives of our patients. The note cards in my office remind me every day that we do make a difference, one patient at a time.
