    I was born and raised in Panama in a multicultural family of Chinese and Hispanic descent. My husband and I enjoy raising our three boys in a diverse place like Central Florida, and I enjoy practicing here too. As a primary care pediatrician, I can build relationships with the families and kids I treat, which is a key reason I chose this field. I love working with children. Their innocence, their sincere smiles, their creativity and imagination, their big hearts and little hands brighten my day — every day! I also like working with their families. I strongly believe that parents and physicians have a mission to offer children a good education and a healthy lifestyle. I enjoy providing patients and families with tools to learn new habits so they can build the kind of environment that promotes health and enjoyment. We should work together toward empowering kids to make the right choices about school, life and staying healthy. I am committed to helping and guiding kids who are trying to manage their weight, and that means encouraging them and involving their families. Working together, we can create a supportive environment that makes the transition to healthy living easier. I try to give patients and parents the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about incorporating physical activity, nutrition, quality foods and good food choices into daily living.

    I am honored and humbled to be trusted with the care of your children. It can be overwhelming when our children go through illness or struggles. I want my families to know I am here for them and they can reach out to me at any time. We are in this together. Children are easygoing, innocent and spontaneous. Their joy in small things is contagious. It is beautiful to hold a newborn and experience the wonder of a new life. Watching the unconditional love of a parent or grandparent and sharing in the joy they feel when their child achieves different milestones gives me immense happiness. Helping the vulnerable is especially important to me, as is preventing stress and stress-related diseases. I want to help children and families gain confidence in managing their health. I enjoy connecting parents to resources and teaching them how to use natural remedies whenever possible. It is immensely rewarding whenever I am able to guide a family through their challenges. I come from a small town in India and feel grateful my parents instilled kindness and compassion in me from a young age. I listen carefully to my patients and families and try to understand everything that affects them. Teaming up with parents means we can work together to guide children to be healthy, happy and confident adults. I am very focused on helping children be the healthiest they can be in every way — physically, socially, emotionally — and supporting them to achieve their highest potential in a natural, stress-free way.

    What is the definition of Tangier Disease?

    Tangier disease is an inherited disorder characterized by significantly reduced levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood. HDL transports cholesterol and certain fats called phospholipids from the body's tissues to the liver, where they are removed from the blood. HDL is often referred to as "good cholesterol" because high levels of this substance reduce the chances of developing heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease. Because people with Tangier disease have very low levels of HDL, they have a moderately increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

    When should I see a Tangier Disease doctor near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 a Tangier Disease doctor near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 Tangier Disease doctors near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 Tangier Disease doctors near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 a Tangier Disease doctor near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 Tangier Disease doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Tangier Disease 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 a Tangier Disease doctor near Lake Mary, FL?

    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 Tangier Disease 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 Tangier Disease 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 Tangier Disease doctors near Lake Mary, FL?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Tangier Disease 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 a Tangier Disease doctor that offers video calls?

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