Biography
Dr. Armsby specializes in caring for children with heart problems. She has advanced training in interventional cardiology (procedures which treat heart disorders and in many cases replaces heart surgery) and heart transplantation. Before coming to OHSU, Dr. Armsby worked as an interventional cardiologist and heart transplant specialist at one of the busiest Children’s Hospitals in the country. She moved to Oregon to spend more time with her husband, a pediatrician, and her three children. Despite finding a greater opportunity to balance her work and life here in Oregon, she remains committed to providing the children she cares for with the highest quality of care.
