Philosophy of Care

To provide the highest possible standards of care which is evidence-based and family centered; care which is delivered in partnership with the multidisciplinary team and parents to improve patient outcomes. To provide individualized care based upon the individual's physiology and needs. To train and mentor the next generation of health care providers, especially in point-of-care ultrasound and targeted neonatal echocardiography.

Clinical Interests

Dr. Singh is a attending neonatologist interested in improving outcomes for the infants with pulmonary hypertension, neonatal shock and extreme prematurity. He is passionate about using functional echocardiography and point-of-care ultrasound to understand pathophysiology of these conditions and early diagnosis and management of critical congenital heart diseases.

Research/Academic Interests

Dr. Singh's research focuses on cardiovascular physiology, especially neonatal and pediatric hemodynamics and pulmonary hypertension. He is a well known expert on Targeted Neonatal Echocardiography (TNE) and point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), and utilizes these skills to advance research in neonatal hemodynamics and to improve patient outcomes.
