I love being a pediatrician and enjoy working with children of all ages. Children inspire me with their ingenuity, innocence and resilience. It's a privilege to work with them every day. I work hard to create a compassionate bond with my patients and collaborate with the entire family for a team-centered approach to health care. With each visit, I really strive to make sure everyone's concerns are heard and their questions are answered. I never want anyone to feel rushed. I always want to make it feel as relaxed as if we were having coffee together. I want families to know they can call me, email me or come see me whenever they need to.
