About Me
Jennifer Bragg, MD is an Associate Professor in the Jack and Lucy Clark Department of Pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and an attending neonatologist and the Director of the Mount Sinai NICU Follow-Up Clinic at the Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Hospital. She also works closely with the Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Heart Center team and is a part of the Cardiac Neurodevelopmental Program. Her focus on improving neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants starts in the NICU with attention to family-centered care practices and facilitation of parent-child bonding from an early age. Through long-term follow-up, she aims to partner with families and the multidisciplinary developmental care team to provide complete diagnostic information for individually-tailored care plans as needed through early childhood.
