Noonan Syndrome, CFC, Costello (RASopathy syndromes), Vascular and Lymphatic Anomalies, Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT, or Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome). I also specialise in management of connective tissue disorders: Marfan syndrome, Loeys Dietz syndrome, Vascular-type Ehlers Danlos syndrome, Familial aortic aneurysm and dissection syndromes, Turner syndrome, Williams syndrome, Metabolic cardiomyopathies, familial cardiomyopathy, and familial congenital heart disease.
Care Philosophy
I provide specialized care of individuals with genetic forms of cardiovascular disease. As a Clinical Geneticist and Pediatric cardiologist, I am in a unique position to diagnose the underlying etiologies of congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathies and aortopathy in children and adolescents. I treat many children with these conditions as their cardiologist; I also serve as a resource and genetics consultant to pediatric cardiologists within our practice and in the greater Rocky Mountain region.
