Keri Shafer | Professional History
My current practice includes inpatient and outpatient care at caring for adults with congenital heart disease and pulmonary hypertension. In addition, I am part of the echocardiography labs at BCH and Brigham and women’s hospital focusing on adult congenital and stress cardiac imaging. As part of my goal to improve ACHD care locally, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to also collaborate with colleagues at Boston Medical Center in starting an ACHD clinic. My current and past research efforts focus on better understanding the response to exercise in those with congenital heart disease. Additionally I served on the guidelines committee for the ACC/AHA regarding sports participation in those with congenital heart disease.
