My Journey to Pediatric Surgery

"I cherish the privilege to help children. My motivation throughout medical school and residency has been my drive to become a pediatric surgeon.

I am driven by the potential for cure during an operation. At the same time, I am also deeply humbled by parents who trust us with the lives of their children."

My Clinical Focus

"As a pediatric surgeon, I have experience in all aspects of neonatal and pediatric surgery. Minimally invasive surgery is integrated into my practice as much as possible. My strong interest in surgical oncology and inflammatory bowel disease keeps me engaged with my medical colleagues to ensure comprehensive multidisciplinary care. As the Trauma Medical Director at Dell Children’s Medical Center, I work to ensure the injured children in Austin received the best care possible. I provide surgical care for children with congenital anomalies. I also provide care for children with surgical issues involving the neck, chest and abdomen."
