Associate Professor
Texas Children's Hospital
Baylor College of Medicine
A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, I am a pediatric intensivist also board-certified in Palliative Medicine. I am based at Texas Children's Hospital / Baylor College of Medicine, providing care to seriously ill patients throughout the hospital, including the neonatal, pediatric, cardiovascular and adult congenital intensive care units, as well as helping support our cancer center. In addition to direct patient care, I enjoy collaborating with colleagues within my institution, including the stellar medical students who worked so hard on this project. I work closely with other pediatric centers in this country, and in various initiatives around the world, with a focus on the best possible delivery of critical care and palliative care in resource-constrained environments.
