Dr. Andrew Krakowski

Philosophy of care | Our philosophy of care at Children's HealthCare is to partner with our parents for the best care possible for their children. Our total approach emphasizes preventive care, proper diet, fitness, immunizations, as well as care of acute and chronic illness. | Why I entered medicine | As a child I was surrounded by medical professionals, so it seemed natural that I should follow the same career path. Choosing to be a pediatrician was easy. Working with children and their parents in both sickness and in health is emotionally rewarding. A mutual trust between doctor and family develops and lasts until our patients have become young adults. | Community involvement | Since coming to Allentown in 1989, I have always been actively involved with numerous activities within the various schools my children have attended. Presently, I am working on the Parkland High School post-prom committee. This event provides a safe, drug-free and fun environment for the students after their prom. It is run by volunteers and generous donations from the community. | Personal interests | I love reading in my leisure time, and I belong to a local fitness club. I also enjoy photography and taking road trips with my family. Dr. Cohen is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of White Sponge Nevus.

Our total approach emphasizes preventive care, proper diet, fitness, immunizations, as well as care of acute and chronic illness. | Why I entered medicine | Early in my medical training I knew I wanted to be a pediatrician. I love being a ""kids doctor."" It's a privilege to follow our patients from the newborn nursery to young adulthood. | Community involvement | I am a speaker for the American Academy of Pediatrics EPIC Program (Educating Physicians in their Communities) on Immunizations and Preventing Childhood Obesity. Our practice participates in the medical education of hospital residents and nurse practitioners and physician assistant students. I'm also a past president of the Lehigh County Medical Society, and continue to be an active board member as well as a trustee. | Personal interests | I have a personal interest in classical music and piano. When our youngest son left for college, I decided to call his piano teacher, and have been taking classical piano lessons for the last 8 years. I find classical music can inspire and enrich us all profoundly.". Dr. Toff is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of White Sponge Nevus.
