Our cardiology faculty is diverse in background and training, and together cover the full spectrum of subspecialties within pediatric cardiology. The priorities of the faculty are to provide outstanding clinical care, further the realm of pediatric cardiology knowledge through research and train fellows to become excellent pediatric cardiologists.

The faculty is extremely dedicated to fellow education, whether it be through didactic teaching, providing supervision and guidance to the fellow as their attending in the echo lab, cath lab, clinic or inpatient units, collaborating on research or through mentoring relationships. Pediatric critical care and cardiothoracic surgery faculty also play important roles in cardiology fellow education.

Dedicated cardiology nursing and administrative staff is available to support the clinical and research efforts of the division, including for fellows and the fellowship program.
