Austin Family Receives Lifesaving Heart Care

Fox 7 Austin

Anderson Allen was born with a congenital heart defect just like mom, Micaela. Karen Wright, M.D., a pediatric cardiologist at Pediatrix® Pediatric and Congenital Cardiology Associates of Texas, cared for Micaela as a child through adolescence and in a full circle moment, she happened to be the on-call cardiologist when Micaela gave birth to her daughter in March.
