My goal as your child’s surgeon is to give them the best care possible while making the experience as child friendly as possible. Whether it is an emergency surgery or an elective one, I want you and your child to understand what the problem is, how we are going to fix it, and what to expect afterwards. While I may see some patients briefly or others long term, it is an honor to be a part of helping them grow and thrive.
