In this podcast, made by and for the Cardiac Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, we interview members of our community about our history, innovative research, clinical programs and advocacy within our institution. In this episode, Dr. Meryl Cohen speaks with Dr. Susan Nicholson about her nearly 40-year career as a pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist at CHOP and the evolution of the field itself. Dr. Nicholson reflects on her path into pediatric cardiac anesthesia, the mentors who shaped her career, and her role in building CHOP’s integrated Cardiac Center. She also shares what continues to bring her joy—from caring for critically ill patients over time to training the next generation—offering thoughtful insights on leadership, lifelong learning, and professional fulfillment.
