About Sushma Krishna, MD
I am deeply committed to neonatology because it offers the opportunity to care for the most vulnerable patients at the very start of life, with a particular focus on optimizing long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes. Witnessing the remarkable resilience of these infants inspires me to deliver compassionate, family-centered care while advancing quality improvement initiatives and promoting optimal neonatal nutrition as critical foundations for brain development and growth. This specialty grants me the profound privilege of making a lasting impact on both infants and their families during some of their most critical and formative moments.
