Santina P. Bruno, DO

As a pediatric emergency medicine specialist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing swift, compassionate care to children in urgent need. The dynamic challenges of pediatric emergency medicine and the opportunity to make immediate, life-saving differences in young lives drive my passion for this field. I believe in a holistic approach that not only addresses the child's immediate medical needs but also involves and reassures the family throughout the process.

I specialize in treating a wide range of conditions, from minor injuries and illnesses to severe, life-threatening emergencies, for infants, children, and adolescents. With extensive training and years of experience in pediatric emergency care, I am committed to delivering ensuring the best possible outcomes for my patients.

Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement, emphasizing the importance of timely and appropriate medical intervention. A defining moment in my career was treating a child in a life-threatening situation and witnessing their full recovery, which reaffirmed my dedication to making a difference. This experience, among many others, has shaped my commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate care.

My journey into medicine began with a desire to make a tangible impact on my patients’ lives, and pediatric emergency medicine offered the perfect blend of challenge and reward. The intensity of the emergency room, coupled with the opportunity to help children during their most vulnerable moments, inspired me to pursue this specialty. As part of the NYU Langone team, I collaborate with a dedicated group of professionals, ensuring comprehensive and coordinated care for my patients. I genuinely care about my patients and their families, striving to make a positive difference in their lives.
