Resident Physician
Memorial Hospital West
My name is Shiv Krishnaswamy and I am a PGY-2 Internal Medicine at Memorial Healthcare System in Pembroke Pines, FL. I attended the University of Florida for undergraduate studies majoring in Biochemistry and then went to Florida Atlantic University for medical school. I have an interest in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine for fellowship primarly due to the acuity of conditions and great mix between clinical detective work as well as procedures that physicians are able to do in the field. I find it very rewarding to care for critically ill patients and see them improve back or at least close to their prior functional status. I also take great joy in speaking with patients' families and having open-minded discussions about goals of care and updating familes daily on the patient's progress. In my spare time, I love to play all sports but particularly I compete in professional pickleball and travel around the US to compete in many tournaments throughout the year.
