Dec 03, 2019
Dr. Anselm has been my daughter Caitlin’s neurologist for over 18 years. My daughter is severely disabled and Dr. Anselm has been the best and brightest of all her physicians. Dr. Anselm is sweet, kind and caring as well as brilliant. I wish all my daughter’s physicians were as fabulous as Dr. Anselm.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  •  As a child, I always knew I wanted to be a physician. I found my passion for child neurology during my last years of medical school in Saint Petersburg, Russia. After immigrating to the United States, I continued training in child neurology, finally joining the Neurology Department at Boston Children's Hospital in 1998.I always had an interest in genetic and hereditary disorders, but later developed a special interest in mitochondrial diseases. The complexity and variability of these disorders presents a challenge, but it is also an exciting field with many innovative studies currently underway. As Director of the Mitochondrial Program, I apply the latest techniques to help our patients and their families manage their disorders. One of my top concerns is improving the quality of life for patients through the study and development of new drugs and therapies.
