As a highly specialized pediatric cardiac surgeon, I’m honored to carry forward world-renowned surgical techniques pioneered here at Stanford Medicine Children’s Health. These transformative procedures allow us to greatly improve the lives of children with complex congenital heart conditions and pulmonary artery anomalies, caring for them through adulthood. I’m humbled to give children a chance at a healthy, active life.

I perform surgery on children with all types of congenital heart conditions from simple to complex, at any age. I find it especially satisfying to care for children as they grow, monitoring changes in their congenital heart disease well into adulthood. I find it absolutely fascinating to be a part of each persons unique experience with congenital heart disease and see the difference that surgery makes in helping them live full lives. How children develop through the years after surgery informs current research and surgical approaches, which makes us better able to care for all children and adults with congenital heart disease.
