Varvara Yarotskaya, MD

When I was a teenager, I lost my grandfather to an aggressive form of cancer. That was the moment I realized that I wanted to help other people as a physician.

Pediatrics captivated me due to its significant impact on children’s futures and the opportunity to care for these vulnerable patients. Inspired by children’s optimism and unique qualities, I view pediatrics as a specialty that combines everything I value in medicine.

My focus is on managing complex inpatient care, coordinating multidisciplinary treatment, and optimizing outcomes for hospitalized children and their families. I am dedicated to promoting children’s mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing, and I value compassionate and transparent discussions with patients and their families.

As a physician, I believe in open communication and an empathetic, humanistic approach, always prioritizing alignment with families’ goals during treatment. With a genuine passion for my specialty, I consistently strive to be a compassionate, engaged, highly qualified, and well-rounded pediatrician for my patients and their families.
