In his role at Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital, Tomas works with pediatric patients and families affected by disorders involving small molecules, including urea cycle disorders and organic acidemias. These rare and often lifelong conditions require careful diagnosis, close monitoring and strong partnerships between providers and families.

“I love working with kids and families with disorders involving small molecules,” Tomas said. “These conditions can be complex but helping families understand what’s happening and how we can support their child is incredibly meaningful.”

Tomas is particularly drawn to the hands-on, relationship-driven nature of pediatric genetics. He values the honesty and openness children bring to clinical encounters and enjoys creating a care environment that feels approachable and supportive.

His approach to care emphasizes connection, communication and meeting families where they are. By combining clinical expertise with empathy and humor, Tomas strives to make challenging diagnoses feel more manageable for both patients and caregivers.

Crowns up for Grady. 👑⚽

Full of joy, personality and an unforgettable smile, 8‑year‑old Grady’s story is one of support and hope.

At his four‑year well‑child visit, Grady’s pediatrician referred him to Atrium Health Levine Children’s Genetics for answers. He was diagnosed with Smith‑Lemli‑Opitz syndrome, a rare condition that affects how the body produces cholesterol, which is essential for growth and development.

With the care and support of his family and his team at Levine Children’s Hospital, Grady’s journey took a remarkable turn. Since starting treatment, his growth has taken off and his love for life shines brighter than ever.

That same joy follows Grady onto the soccer field through the Miracle League, where kids of all abilities get the chance to play the game they love. One of his favorite moments is playing alongside his big brother, Evan.

Grady was honored as the Charlotte FC honorary captain, sharing the excitement of match day with fans across the stadium. Tonight, the crown belongs to Grady and the community that continues to lift him up.

Every step means more when it’s filled with heART. 👟💙

As part of Atrium Health’s entitlement night with Charlotte FC, teammates from Atrium Health Levine Children’s helped bring creativity and community to the stadium.

Charlotte FC fans were invited to help decorate shoes for patients at Levine Children’s Hospital. With support from Olivia at Arts for Life and The Shoedio, the pre‑match activation created a full‑circle moment connecting fans and patients through creativity.


After the match, patients received custom shoes created with them in mind, carrying the energy of Charlotte FC and the care of the Charlotte community from the stadium to their hospital rooms, offering a sense of normalcy.

We are proud to partner with Charlotte FC beyond the field to support our patients.

A beary good time with a big purpose 🧸

The Teddy Bear Clinic at Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital turns unfamiliar clinical moments into opportunities for play, confidence and connection. Led by our Child Life team, our patients took the lead as caregivers, guiding their favorite stuffed animals through hands-on stations inspired by real parts of the care experience.

From checking vitals and exploring medical play alongside our facility dogs to creating calming sensory bottles and stopping by the “Ask the Doc” station, each moment was designed to help kids feel more comfortable, curious and empowered in a space made just for them.

We are grateful to our teammates who create experiences like this, helping kids better understand their care and feel supported every step of the way.

When Liana shared how sad she felt about missing Holi, a celebration filled with color, light and joy, our team knew we wanted to bring that spirit to her.

With the vision of Atrium Health Levine Children's Hospital chaplain Amanda, and the creativity of Arts for Life, the Levine Children's supportive medicine team transformed a play space in our Cancer & Blood Disorders clinic into a joyful celebration of color. What started as paper-covered walls quickly became a canvas for patients, families and teammates to paint, splash, spray and create together.

Over three mornings, the space came alive with bright colors, laughter and paint-covered hands. Most importantly, Liana felt seen, celebrated and connected to a cherished tradition she thought she would miss this year. She was so excited that she joined us for two of the three days.

Moments like this reflect the heart of supportive medicine. Creating space for freedom, expression and joy in a place that so often feels controlled. Honoring our patients not just for what they are facing, but for who they are.
