Dr. Maria L. Escolar

I find joy and satisfaction in my dedication to the care of children with rare diseases specifically: genetic disorders and inherited disorders of metabolism. Due to many years of training and practice, I have experience involving care of patients with a variety of genetic and metabolic conditions, including but not limited to glycogen storage diseases, fatty acid oxidation defects, mitochondrial disorders, lysosomal storage diseases, urea cycle disorders, organic acidurias, aminoacidopathies, and infantile hepatopathy due to LARS mutations, etc. I enjoy working together with children and their parents, whom I consider an important part of the team. I pursued this field because it gives me great satisfaction and pleasure to see the children with these conditions grow, and the patients and families feel cared for, and not isolated. I love learning about the children's interests, and see that they grow happy and healthy. I think out of the box when there is a challenge that needs to be met for the patient's care and management.
