Sukanya Srinivasan MD

  • Director of Research and Scholarly Activity
  • Director of LifeStyle Medicine

Dr. Srinivasan’s area of focus lies in maternal child health and her past successes include authorship of an AAFP monograph on the newborn exam, a book chapter on well-child care, and presentations at the annual AAFP pediatric review course.  For the past 10 years, she has been an active member of the IMPLICIT (Interventions to Minimize Preterm and Low birth weight Infants through Continuous Improvement Techniques) Network, a family medicine learning collaborative of the Family Medicine Education Consortium that is focused on improving birth outcomes.  As a site leader for the Network, she champions the mission of the Network by helping develop, implement, and sustain Network projects, including the current evidence-based inter-conception care (ICC) model. 

The IMPLICIT CC model has been developed in a nationally available toolkit in collaboration with the March of Dimes and several peer-reviewed journal articles have been published with this data.  One of these papers, of which Dr. Srinivasan was the lead author, received STFM's 2018 Research Paper of the Year Award.

Dr. Srinivasan enjoys living in Pittsburgh with her husband and two children.   Her interests outside of medicine include culinary arts, gardening, and Broadway musicals.
