Philosophy of Care
Dr. Kan believes children from around the world who come to UC Davis should have access to high quality and family-centered medical care. By minimizing anxiety and discomfort during the perioperative experience, Dr. Kan's vision as a pediatric anesthesiologist is to help her patients recognize that they will have a safety net to fall back on when faced with stressful healthcare encounters, that as children and adolescents, they can continue to explore new boundaries and attain life achievement without fear.
Research/Academic Interests
Dr. Kan's academic interests are in acute pain management, medical education, and global health.
