The Advanced Practice Provider (APP) team consists of 19 skilled Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Assistants (PAs) who collaborate effectively to deliver exceptional care. With over 90 years of combined experience in nursing and pediatric cardiology, our team members have diverse interests, including research, ventricular assist devices, and the care of neonates and chronically critically ill patients.
