Pat Dillon, MD

“You’re not just taking care of one patient, you’re taking care of the entire family,” explains Pat Dillon about a unique aspect of being a pediatric surgeon. “Speaking up for kids and working with their families makes what I do very rewarding,” he says.

Jackie Saito, MD

One of Jackie Saito’s research projects at St. Louis Children’s Hospital focuses on the role of imaging in diagnosing appendicitis. “At Children’s, we’re committed to working with pediatricians to select the safest, most effective imaging test for each situation,” she says.

Adam’s passion for his patients—“There’s something about each one that sticks with you and makes you a better doctor,” he says—is shared by his team. “That passion combined with the resources we have means exceptional care for kids in St. Louis,” he says.
