About me

I'm a neonatologist, a doctor who cares for newborns who are born early or are critically ill. I provide all kinds of newborn critical care in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), with a focus on breathing machines (mechanical ventilation). 

I care for babies with conditions including:

  • Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a long-term lung condition in babies born early
  • Pulmonary hypertension (PH), high blood pressure in the lungs
  • Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a serious condition that affects the intestines

I take a family-centered approach and I prioritize open communication with parents. I see each baby as a whole person. This means that I talk to them during exams, call them by name and bringing information from every source into one complete daily care plan.

Outside of work, I serve on the board of directors for Hello Nurze, a nonprofit that connects families of children with complex medical needs with home health nurses in their communities. I also enjoy traveling with my family, playing music and recording cover songs in my home studio.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
