About
Biography
As a pediatric anesthesiologist and pain doctor, I provide pain management and sedation for children. I care for children who need surgery or pain management for other procedures.
I work to understand my patients and their conditions so that I can tailor their anesthetic treatment or pain regimen. I talk with patients and families about their concerns and answer their questions.
I became a pediatric anesthesiologist because I enjoy working with kids.
My research focuses on using databases and analytics to sort surgeries into groups and understand patients’ pain responses to surgery.
