I was happy to return to the Children’s Heart Centre for my interview with Dr. Shubhayan Sanatani, Division Head of Cardiology at BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver, Canada. Over the years, he and the entire heart team, took wonderful care of our family. I have long been curious about why he chose to pursue cardiology, and today, I got the chance to ask.
Dr. Sanatani kicks off our chat with a story about the grade 12 teacher who sparked his early interest in biology, ultimately leading to his work in paediatric cardiology and electrophysiology. We also touch on why he loves working with kids, the excitement of new discoveries, and the opportunities where medicine can grow and change.
