    Philosophy of care | I believe in providing holistic care to patients. Too often in medicine, patients are seen as their disease and not as a whole person. I try my best to treat patients as full human beings, and always consider their backgrounds, culture, surroundings and the people in their lives who helped shape them. That’s a major reason why I went into family medicine. By listening and getting to know patients, I get a full sense of who they are. The relationship and trust we build is extremely meaningful and valuable to me, and allows me to provide the best care I can. | Why I entered medicine | I’ve always had a passion for helping others in need. When I was younger, I watched my mother go through so much pain and suffering due to a serious medical condition. She was fortunate to meet a group of excellent physicians and surgeons who not only changed her life but also changed my life and enabled me to dream of becoming something I never imagined: a doctor. After my mother regained her physical function, she was beyond grateful that she could provide for her two children again. She brought so much positive energy to our family. These physicians gave us hope and a second chance. I learned that a doctor can positively impact multiple lives at once and not just one person’s life. Now I try to do the same for others and share those special moments with them. | Community involvement | During my residency I volunteered in schools giving kids sports physicals. I found I loved working with children, and I especially enjoy caring for babies. Now, in addition to my regular practice, I elect to spend time doing rounds in the hospital nursery working with newborns. It is part of what I love about family medicine – the continuity of care. You start with babies, and then begin caring for the entire family. You really get to know each individual over the course of their lives. | Personal interests | My husband and I are huge foodies, and we love exploring different restaurants and trying new foods in the area. When I’m not sampling the local cuisine, I enjoy cooking Korean food at home, which I learned from my mom. I also love watching movies and TV shows after a long day of work – mostly dramas and thrillers. It’s my little reward, and a great way to unwind and relax. Dr. Patrylo is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Obesity in Children. Her clinical expertise encompasses Migraine, Infant Hyperglycemia, Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), and Obesity in Children. Dr. Patrylo is board certified in American Board Of Family Medicine - Family Medicine.

    Philosophy of care | I care for patients of all life stages and value the benefits of being able to take care of the entire family from newborns to grandparents. I believe in meeting each patient where they are on their healing journey and serving as a teacher and advocate in their life. | My goal is to help everyone achieve optimal health and functioning with an emphasis on preventative care. I also have a professional interest in integrative medicine and the use of complementary and alternative modalities within health care. | Why I entered medicine | I have a passion for health and wellness, and my interest in medicine was sparked when I completed my training as a yoga instructor. I began exploring what it means to be truly healthy, prevent disease and all of the ways in which we can attain health in our daily lives. My personal mission became to combine the physical sciences with complementary and alternative approaches to health care. | Community involvement | I was born and raised in Bethlehem, Pa., and have a passion for the health and wellness of our community. I currently sit on the Bethlehem Board of Health for the Bethlehem Health Bureau, and I am actively involved in community work within the city. | Personal interests | I believe in being a role model for living a healthy lifestyle and try to practice what I preach every day with regard to preventative care. In my free time I enjoy many forms of physical activity, such as running, hiking and long walks. I’m also passionate about incorporating mind and body activities into my daily health routine and regularly practice meditation and yoga. Good nutrition is an essential part of my life, and I enjoy cooking or baking a healthy new dish on weekends. I also love relaxing with a good book and spending time with my family and friends at local restaurants and community events.

Her clinical expertise encompasses Familial Dysautonomia, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Obesity in Children, and Familial Hypertension.

    "Philosophy of care | I sincerely value getting to know my patients and building a relationship based on mutual respect and trust. I want to become a partner as we work together to maintain your health. As a caregiver, I try to see the ""whole person"" and not just symptoms or medical diagnosis. I consider all aspects of your health and provide you and your family the best care possible. | Why I entered medicine | I was always interested in the human body and how it worked. I am extroverted and enjoy interacting with people and helping others, thus a call to practice medicine came naturally. I chose family medicine because I really enjoy taking care of entire families; seeing children, parents and grandparents. I love the variety of doing well visits, diabetes and hypertension management, mental health care, and procedures such as joint injections and IUDs – often all in one day! | Community involvement | I am new to both the Lehigh Valley and Pennsylvania, so I look forward to getting involved in the community here. Most of my previous community involvement was through church and ministry related activities. I am looking forward to learning about opportunities in the area and getting my spouse and three children involved as well. | Personal interests | I enjoy family time, cooking, reading, hiking, wine-tasting and horseback riding.".

    Philosophy of care | I stress the importance of communication between my patients, their family members and me. Whether I am with a patient in the office or at the bedside, I spend as much time as is necessary to ensure all their questions are answered. It’s important that patients and families know what to expect before, during and after surgery. | Why I entered medicine | When I was growing up, I had the utmost respect for our family physician. When I was in high school, I joined a program that allowed students to rotate through different departments in a local hospital. It gave me the rare opportunity as a high school student to witness an open-heart procedure during the surgery rotation. That’s when surgery piqued my interest. I realized surgery was the area of medicine that allows people to see almost immediate symptom relief. That appealed to me. | Personal interests | I have three children. I enjoy spending my free time with them reading, playing and just watching them grow up. Dr. Garcia is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Obesity in Children.

    What is the definition of Obesity in Children?

    Obesity in children means having a weight that is higher than what is healthy for a child's height. Obesity is a serious, chronic condition. Over time, it can lead to other health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers.

    When should I see an Obesity in Children doctor near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children doctor near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children doctors near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children doctors near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children doctor near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Obesity in Children 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 Obesity in Children doctor near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    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 Obesity in Children 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 Obesity in Children 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 Obesity in Children doctors near Phillipsburg, NJ?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Obesity in Children 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 Obesity in Children doctor that offers video calls?

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