As a physician who specializes in breast cancer and as the mother of two boys, Shruti is deeply committed to improving the health of women and children. She is personally grateful to Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital for providing extraordinary care through her two high-risk pregnancies and deliveries. 

 “Giving back to this hospital that has given so much to me is a passion to which I am wholly committed,” Shruti says. “The Ambassadors program has allowed me to learn about the many areas of need and has been a fantastic way to become more deeply engaged with the mission of the hospital and help to carry forward the vision of our hospital’s founder, Lucile Salter Packard.”
