MBBS, MD, FRCA, FRCPC

Investigator and Staff Pediatric Anesthesiologist, BC Children's Hospital

I am interested in modifying existing anesthesia techniques and proposing and studying how novel anesthesia techniques reduce complications in newborns and young babies undergoing elective surgery. I am also interested in how using techniques to numb specific areas of the body undergoing surgery can help improve outcomes in children.
