    Dr. Elias is a native Floridian who grew up in Titusville. She went to medical school at the University of Miami School of Medicine and did her residency at Arnold Palmer Hospital. She also has a Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University. She has three children whose age span ranges from elementary school to young adult. Growing up, my role model was my father — a physician who practiced until he was 81 years old. But I chose children because I am grateful for the opportunity to make an impact on a child's development. I love all children, from babies to teenagers. As a parent myself, I like to mentor and help other parents deal with behavioral issues and getting past the tough toddler years. I’m passionate about good health and nutrition. I tend to take a whole-body approach to children’s healthcare and consider how nutrition, sleep and exercise can have an impact on their well-being. I make a point of giving each family and child the attention they deserve. I take the time to address all their concerns, knowing that every question is important.

    I grew up here in Central Florida. After high school I went to University of Florida, then decided to brave the cold weather in Milwaukee for medical school. I joined the U.S. Navy and did my pediatric internship at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.I loved pediatrics and caring for children. After my internship, my country needed me to serve the troops as a Naval flight surgeon. While it took me away from my first love of pediatrics, it offered me so many unique experiences flying in airplanes and helicopters and caring for our Marine and Naval air crew. I got to travel the world from Japan to Korea and even to Iraq.After exiting the Navy, I completed my residency at Duke University in pediatrics. As a U.S. Marine Corps spouse, I practiced in multiple U.S. cities as well as Japan (again). I love that I am back into pediatrics and Central Florida doing my life calling. I love general pediatrics because there is such a variety of visits from treating sick children to helping kids meet their milestones to just watching kids grow into healthy, well-adjusted adults. Pediatrics allows us to really make a difference through prevention and guidance. Overall, I am passionate about giving your child the brightest future while keeping them feeling healthy and well. I am very experienced in mental health and manage a lot of ADHD, anxiety, and depression. Seeing the progression of development in a young baby to a toddler and teen is heartwarming for me. Outside of work I enjoy traveling, reading, doing puzzles, and Peloton. I have even visited the Peloton studio. I love vacationing and hanging out with my two children who are entering the teen years (scary but rewarding). I try to give parents tools and education to make their children as healthy and happy as possible. As a mom of two, I relate to the trials and tribulations of parenting.

    I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. I attended the University of Louisville for both my undergraduate studies and medical school. I enjoy walks with my wife, tennis with my kids, working out, and cooking. I feel that being active is very important, not only in childhood but also as we age. I also enjoy cooking and feel it’s important to learn skills in the kitchen to be able to prepare meals made with real food and decrease the consumption of processed foods, which will help promote better health. Children are a vulnerable population and I feel it’s important to be their advocate and ensure their safety, promote good health, and protect them with vaccines. As a tennis pro, I had the opportunity to work a lot with children and always enjoyed their energy, honesty, and humor. Being comfortable with children and interacting with them came natural to me and so pediatrics was my calling. I am passionate about promoting optimal health through nutrition and protecting children with vaccines. I take time to talk to my patients and their families about things they can do that will make a difference. Preventive medicine means helping kids live healthier lives through diet and exercise and getting their vaccinations. I do a lot of counseling about the importance of vaccinations. These things are big concerns for me. My goal is to establish trusting relationships with families and children so they can be comfortable and honest with me in the exam room. I want them to be able to talk to me about anything and know that I’ll be right there with them. I really try to connect with my families — inside the office and out in the community.In addition to my practice, I am the co-chair of the Florida Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Obesity & Nutrition and was also a contributor to the Florida Chapter of the AAP Obesity & Nutrition Toolkit. Dr. Mcrae is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly. He is also highly rated in 9 other conditions, according to our data.

    I’m a Florida native from Tallahassee. I earned my bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from Furman University and completed medical school at the University of South Florida. I enjoyed my pediatric residency in Orlando so much that I stayed on an extra year as chief resident. For me it’s truly an honor and a privilege to care for children and I love sharing in the exciting and challenging experiences of parenting. fh;sj k I knew I wanted to care for children after I spent a high school summer working with a pediatrician. I quickly understood that the doctor didn’t just treat patients – she had relationships with families, and this left a lasting impression. Throughout medical school, my residency, and especially today in my practice, working with families is the best part of my job. It’s my goal to become a trusted “medical home” for parents and kids, helping them through all of life’s stages. I’m passionate about educating families, because knowledge is power. As a partner in care, I teach families not only about illnesses, but also about growth, behavior and development, to help them raise happy, healthy kids who grow into happy, healthy adults. Knowing that every child is unique, I offer personalized guidance, support and advice for each family. I strive to really get to know my families and I invest my attention and experience to help every child in any way I can. One of my proudest moments was being inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society which recognizes medical students and practicing physicians for their compassion, excellence in clinical care, leadership, and dedication to service. Living up to this high standard drives every interaction I have with my patients and families. Dr. Athans is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly. She is also highly rated in 6 other conditions, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Common Cold, Food Allergy, Obesity in Children, and Developmental Expressive Language Disorder. Dr. Athans is board certified in American Board Of Pediatrics.

    I’ve been practicing medicine for almost 30 years, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. My favorite thing about being a pediatrician is becoming part of the family. Seeing a child from the first days of life all the way through to adolescence is truly amazing. I’m very humbled and proud to be voted Osceola County’s best pediatrician, but what’s truly rewarding is having parents who were my patients as children, bringing their own children in to see me. In the Philippines, where I was born and raised, I was inspired by my neighbor who was a physician. For years I watched as he helped people — especially sick children — get well and grow up. I thought it was incredible that someone could help heal and make such a difference in a person's life. I knew early on this was what I wanted to do. My passion is helping children grow into strong, confident adults. As a doctor I can influence a child’s life and I take that to heart. When I was young, my doctor was my friend and that’s my goal with my patients and families. I enjoy celebrating successes and helping my patients through struggles by providing healing and advice in times of sickness and in health. I regularly participate in medical missions in the Philippines, and I’m grateful to be able to help children who are sick get back to just being kids. I also treat every child as my own and will do whatever it takes to ensure that all of my “children” are healthy and strong.

    What is the definition of Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly?

    Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (often shortened to MCPH, which stands for "microcephaly primary hereditary") is a condition in which infants are born with a very small head and a small brain. Some people with MCPH have a narrow, sloping forehead; mild seizures; problems with attention or behavior; or short stature compared to others in their family. It normally does not affect any other major organ systems or cause other health problems. MCPH can result from changes in the ASPM gene (half of the cases) and at least other ten genes which are involved in early brain development and brain size. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.

    When should I see an Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor in Florida, US?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing an Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor in Florida, US?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctors in Florida, US?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctors in Florida, US?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with an Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor in Florida, US?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with an Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor in Florida, US?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctors in Florida, US?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find an Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Autosomal Recessive Primary Microcephaly doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
