Professional History

Dr. Quinn grew up in Connecticut and completed his undergraduate education at the University of Maine. He subsequently attended Eastern Virginia Medical School for his medical degree and completed his pediatric residency and pediatric cardiology fellowship training at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston Medical Center. He further specialized in interventional pediatric cardiology at Boston Children’s Hospital before coming on as staff in the invasive cardiology division. His primary interests include patient safety and quality metric development for congenital cardiac catheterization with a keen focus on improving patient outcomes through the development and implementation of risk mitigation strategies both locally and nationally.

I believe in patient- and family-centered care unique to each patient’s individual circumstances and needs. Each day is an exciting opportunity to connect directly with patients and their families, providing dedicated and compassionate care so that each patient can achieve the best possible outcome.
