Pediatric Cardiology Fellow

Dr. Ligsay is on Doximity

As a Doximity member you'll join over two million verified healthcare professionals in a private, secure network.

I am currently finishing my final year of Pediatric Cardiology fellowship at the University of Michigan / CS Mott Children's Hospital. Beginning in July 2023, I will be continuing my medical training at McGaw Medical Center of Northwestern University as a Sleep Medicine fellow.

My areas of clinical interests focus on general pediatric cardiology, as well as diagnosis and management of sleep disorders in both adult and pediatric patients. I have a particular clinical interest in studying the effects of sleep disorders on cardiac function and cardiovascular health in patients with congenital heart disease and single ventricle physiology.

I am actively involved in medical student and resident education, and aspire to work in an academic setting to continue teaching future clinicians.
