Pediatric Rehabilitation Attending/Assistant Professor of PM&R
Boston Childrens Hospital/Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital/Harvard Medical School
Dr. Ubeda Tikkanen has completed two research fellowships, and two clinical fellowship in pediatric rehabilitation medicine at Boston Children’s and Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. Her clinical practice and research interests are focused on improving the functional outcomes and quality of life for children with disabilities; more specifically those with congenital heart disease, heart transplants and VADs. Life expectancy of children with congenital heart disease has increased over the past three decades due to advances in clinical management and surgical fields. This increase in life expectancy also comes with a functional impact.
