Summary
- Christina Fink is a board certified general Pediatric Cardiologist, who is also board certified in both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics (2017). She completed her fellowship at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, where she gained experience managing the care of inpatients and outpatients with a wide range of cardiac conditions. She continues to cultivate her special interest in caring for patients with congenital heart diseases, and also is a clinical lipidologist, caring for patients with cholesterol abnormalities, which fits her philosophy of care to not only treat, but also slow and prevent disease. Further adding to her mindset of preventative medicine, Dr. Fink became board certified in obesity management to help her patients make changes to avoid developing cardiovascular disease among hundreds of other obesity-associated conditions. During fellowship, she became involved in advocacy for her patients and colleague providers through the American College of Cardiology and was recognized and elected by the Ohio Chapter of American College of Cardiology (ACC) to serve as a member of the Fellow-in-training Council functioning as a liaison between fellow colleagues and the state chapter. She has continued her advocacy efforts locally and at the national level through the ACC and has advocated for children’s healthcare through the American Academy of Pediatrics. In the summer of 2022, she took the American Board of Clinical Lipidology (ABCL), and earned her title of Diplomate in Clinical Lipidology. In the fall of 2023, she took the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) and earned her title as an ABOM Diplomate.
