Personal Statement

I was drawn to the field of neonatal-perinatal medicine when I was a high school student reading an edition of “LIFE” magazine highlighting this new medical field that intersects science and technology to save premature babies. I was fascinated that I could specialize in a specific subspecialty while still taking care of all systems in critically ill newborns and their families. Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine continues to be an exciting field with swift advancements in technologies allowing us to take care of the most immaturebabies giving them and their families hope for a lifetime of opportunity. My approach to care is a multidisciplinary approach framed by communication and education with the family at the center. My return to Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå°æ after graduating from Weill Cornell Medical College in 1992 was driven by WCM’s mission in clinical care, education, and research. WCM leads the country in comprehensive, state-of-the-art care and I am excited to be a part of this mission to optimize outcomes for critically ill newborns.
