From Dr. Caplan
I am excited to be a part of the Texas Children’s Heart Center team, Pediatric Anesthesia team, and the continuing commitment to excellence. I take my role and responsibilities very seriously to provide safe anesthesia for children with and without congenital heart disease undergoing procedures. I strive daily to provide quality anesthetic care with the goal of minimizing pain after surgical procedures.
