Dr. Michael Shannon In Memoriam
Children's Department of Emergency Medicine is sadden by the loss of our Chief Emeritus, Michael Shannon, MD, MPH. Dr. Shannon was an incredibly personable, highly talented clinician, researcher and person. He will be greatly missed.
All patients are accepted in the emergency department from birth through 21 years of age, and those with chronic illnesses requiring pediatric expertise (e.g. cystic fibrosis or complex congenital heart disease) are treated at any age, as appropriate.

As one of the largest emergency/trauma centers in New England, Children's cares for more than 50,000 patients each year and serves as a Level I Pediatric Trauma Center.
