Christina Fink MD, FAAP, FACP, FACC

“She looks like a pediatric cardiologist who uses her depth of knowledge from her Jesuit undergraduate education and her background in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics to provide the best, well-rounded, specialty care for her pediatric and young adult patients. She loves using science and technology to make real-time diagnoses, to provide the most up-to-date treatment for the little hearts and to advocate on behalf of her patients and healthcare provider team.”

Christina is most passionate about providing the highest quality cardiac care to her patients and their families both directly, and indirectly through advocacy. She enjoys using her interpersonal skills and abilities to effectively coordinate multi-disciplinary care for the most complex of cardiac patients, and she also utilizes her interpersonal skills to deliver optimal patient care and continue to foster the spirit of collegiality amongst providers. Through her advocacy efforts, she has extended that spirit of collegiality to lawmakers with the ultimate intent of improving the quality of healthcare provided to her patients.

Dr. Fink is an attending pediatric cardiologist who cares for patients with general pediatric cardiology conditions, congenital heart disease and abnormal cholesterol levels. She finds managing the complex care of patients with congenital heart disease intellectually satisfying and she enjoys coordinating with subspecialists to provide optimal care to her patients in clinic, on the cardiology ward and on the consult service. She served as a liaison for the Fellow-in-Training Council in the Ohio Chapter of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and was an active advocate both locally and nationally through the ACC. As an attending, she has continued her advocacy efforts, and is a member of both the Adult Congenital Pediatric Cardiology (ACPC) workgroup and the newly founded Women in Cardiology (WIC)-ACPC workgroup, within the ACC. Dr. Fink also became a recent member of the National Lipid Association, to augment her ability to care for children and adolescents with cholesterol disorders.
