I deliver compassionate, quality care that focuses on the entire patient and their families. With over 2 decades of experience practicing pediatrics, I am well equipped to meet parents and children where they're at in their development. I like watching children grow and develop. I appreciate being able to educate them on their physical and mental health so they can carry those skills far into their future. I've wanted to be a pediatrician since I was about 5. I had a wonderful pediatrician for my entire childhood and, since I was little, I've been fascinated with how the body works. I love children, and I always had a desire for caring for them and keeping them healthy. Patients and their families tell me I’m good at listening and being caring, kind, and compassionate. I like putting patients at ease. Usually kids are fun and playful, so it’s easy to put them at ease that way. If I can help them achieve both their desired physical and mental health in a relaxed, caring environment, that’s a success.
