Matthew Furst, MD

Hello, my name is Dr Matthew Furst. I received my medical degree from Wake Forest University School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. During my time as a medical student, I was drawn to Pediatrics by my observation of the special connection children could form with their physicians and the particular care and dedication I saw within the field. While at the St. Christopher's Hospital for Children in Philadelphia for my residency, I became further interested in the field of Cardiology. I found it fascinating how congenital heart disease was diagnosed and treated. Cardiology basically comes down to the physics of fluid dynamics and electricity and these were subjects I had always excelled in.
