John S. Giuliano, Jr., MD, a pediatric critical care specialist, says he wants to be the physician a patient is transferred to—not from. “I like being that last stop and taking care of the patients in most need of care. That, to me, is the most rewarding,” says Dr. Giuliano, who is also director of the Pediatric Transport Program, which delivers sick children (via ambulance or helicopter) to Yale New Haven Children’s Hospital from other hospitals throughout the region. His research explores the inflammatory response, or how the body reacts to infections. He is also interested in improving the way fellows are trained in certain medical procedures. Dr. Giuliano is an associate professor of pediatric critical care at Yale School of Medicine.
