Pediatric cardiologist from Mount Sinai joins Valley’s pediatric team

As a result of the recently announced pediatric affiliation between Valley Health System and Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital, Valley is pleased to welcome pediatric cardiologist Dr. Marjorie Gayanilo.

Gayanilo is now seeing patients in the Paramus office on Mondays and Fridays.

In addition to being a practicing pediatric cardiologist, Gayanilo is an assistant professor of pediatrics in the Division of Pediatric Cardiology in the Jack and Lucy Clark Department of Pediatrics at Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

“The appointment of Gayanilo to our team is one of Valley’s latest service expansions to offer specialized pediatric care,” Dr. Antonio Quiros, chair of children’s services for Valley Medical Group, said. “As a result of our partnership with Mount Sinai, our patients will benefit from Gayanilo’s expertise and her ability to collaborate with both her Valley and Mount Sinai colleagues on cases as needed.”

Gayanilo has particular expertise in non-invasive imaging and preventive cardiology. Her clinical interests lie in the diagnosis and management of fetal cardiac concerns. She will be working with Valley’s maternal-fetal medicine team to enhance the care the team is providing to those with high-risk pregnancies.

Gayanilo obtained her medical degree from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. She completed her residency in pediatrics at New York-Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center and her cardiology fellowship at the University of Miami-Jackson Memorial Hospital. Gayanilo is board certified in general pediatrics and pediatric cardiology.

Prior to coming to Mount Sinai, Gayanilo was an attending physician and associate program director of the Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship Program at Children’s Hospital of Michigan.
