About Shawn Jay Krishnan, M.D.
I am an academic hospitalist that has trained to take care of both pediatric and adult patients across a variety of clinical contexts. The field of hospital medicine allows me to collaborate in with other healthcare professionals in teams to make the inpatient experience of my patients as painless as possible. I am passionate about easing the transition process for pediatric to adult care as well as improving healthcare equity and delivery for my patients. I am also interested in being a clinical mentor to other medical students and trainees. After spending my training in San Diego, I am excited to be a part of the New York City community at Cornell.
