About

Isam Nasr

Isam Waddah Nasr is a pediatric surgeon in the Johns Hopkins Department of Surgery and Johns Hopkins Children’s Center. He joined the Children’s Center in 2015, after completing fellowships in both surgical critical care and pediatric surgery at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.

Dr. Nasr is director of the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center Pediatric Trauma Program and co-director of the Pediatric Colorectal Program. He has developed significant national recognition in the field of pediatric trauma through both his clinical and basic science research, where he has made substantial scholarly contributions. A nationally recognized expert in the field of pediatric colorectal surgery — an area in which he has a large national and international referral base — Dr. Nasr has a track record for clinical excellence that is well established in and outside of the Johns Hopkins system.

Trained in minimally invasive surgical procedures and skilled in the management of congenital colorectal anomalies, Dr. Nasr focuses on congenital pediatric colorectal conditions such as Hirschsprung disease, anorectal malformations, cloacal exstrophy and idiopathic chronic constipation — one of the most clinically challenging pediatric patient populations to treat. He performs a thorough review and workup of all patients who are referred to his multidisciplinary bowel management clinic. These patients often require multiple complex reconstructive procedures involving urology, orthopaedics and plastic surgery. When care is transitioned into adulthood, Dr. Nasr and his team provide extensive longitudinal follow-up.

Dr. Nasr also specializes in the advanced treatment of trauma and critical care injuries among children. As director of the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center Pediatric Trauma Program — the only pediatric Level 1 trauma center in Maryland — Dr. Nasr leads a large multidisciplinary team that includes staff members from the emergency department, pediatric intensive care, pediatric surgery, physical therapy and child psychology. He successfully led the team three times through the Maryland Institute for Emergency Medical Services Systems accreditation process.

Dr. Nasr’s basic science research interests include studying the gut-brain axis and the inflammatory response following traumatic brain injury in the pediatric population. His clinical focus will be on implementing system-based methods to improve the care of the pediatric trauma patient.
