About Me
I am a board-certified pediatric cardiologist at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital with more than 25 years of experience in both clinical care and hospital-based services. I treat a wide range of conditions, including congenital heart defects, chest pain, syncope, arrhythmias, hypertension and cardiac anomalies related to genetic syndromes. I also evaluate children for cardiac sports clearance and assess heart health before they start ADHD medications.
I was drawn to pediatric cardiology because of the unique combination it offers — advanced diagnostics, procedural care and the chance to build long-term relationships with families. It’s a field that requires both precision and connection, and I find that deeply fulfilling.
During a first visit, I want parents to feel comfortable asking questions and confident that their concerns are being taken seriously. My goal is to make complex diagnoses understandable and work together toward a plan that feels clear and manageable.
