Rohit I. Pinto, MD

As a pediatric critical care specialist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to critically ill children and their families. My role in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (ICU) allows me to blend clinical medicine with cutting-edge technology and biomedical innovation, ensuring that each day is both challenging and rewarding. I am deeply committed to supporting families through their journey, helping them navigate uncertainty and anxiety while making shared decisions about their child’s care.

I specialize in pediatric critical care, focusing on managing severe and life-threatening conditions in children. With years of experience in this field, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice. My dedication to bioethics is reflected in my active participation on bioethics committees, where I advocate for patient and family values within complex medical systems. Additionally, I am passionate about teaching and mentoring medical students and residents, guiding them as they embark on their medical careers.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in various aspects of pediatric critical care, from clinical practice to bioethics and education. My work extends beyond the hospital, as I am actively engaged in global medicine initiatives aimed at bringing pediatric critical care to resource-poor areas. This global perspective enriches my practice and underscores my commitment to improving the lives of vulnerable pediatric patients worldwide.

My journey into pediatric critical care began during my pediatric residency, where I discovered a profound interest in the balance between clinical medicine and medical technology. This unique combination inspired me to pursue a career as a pediatric intensivist. I am privileged to be part of NYU Langone, where I collaborate with a dedicated team to provide coordinated and seamless care for our youngest patients. My passion for bioethics, education, and global health continues to drive my commitment to this field and the impact it has on the lives of children today and in the future.
