Andrea Diaz

Overview

"I discovered psychiatry when I spent a summer as a camp counselor at a ""Serious Fun"" camp for kids with chronic illnesses. The impact of mental health on their well-being was astounding. I believe this is true for all of us, even though at times it is difficult to identify or talk about mental health and mental illnesses. As a psychiatrist, I believe that patients and families try the best they can with the tools they have. At times, however, life can become too challenging, and more tools and support are necessary. It is my passion to work alongside families to help them maintain or restore the mental health of themselves and their loved ones and achieve their goals and dreams. Having lived in four different countries, I thoroughly enjoy working with patients from diverse backgrounds and have come to appreciate that everyone's patient's experience is unique.".

I am a pediatric nephrologist and work with children with kidney disease. Some of the conditions that we see include congenital malformations of the kidney and the bladder, nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis (inflammation of the kidney filters), and children who are on dialysis or who received kidney transplantation because of kidney failure. I listen carefully to parents when they bring their children to the clinic because they know their children better than any other person, and they are the best advocates for their child. I collaborate a lot with the other doctors in the clinic. Rest assured, when you visit our clinic and I am not around, the doctor who is seeing you knows everything about your child. This is a group practice with a very caring multidisciplinary team. Dr. Gbadegesin is highly rated in 9 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, Nephrotic Syndrome, Minimal Change Disease, Glomerulonephritis, and Kidney Transplant.

I treat children with cancer and blood disorders, such as anemia and sickle cell disease. When families come in, there is understandably a huge amount of anxiety. I try to spend a lot of time with them and discuss what we know, what we need to find out, and how we plan to care for their children. My goal is to make it the least scary as possible for both the children and the parents/caregivers while providing the best care. Even in the setting of severe illness, interacting with children is uplifting and extremely rewarding. Children truly demonstrate the resilience of the human spirit. What I love most about my job is having relationships with children and seeing them grow; it is a wonderful experience. Dr. Rothman is highly rated in 11 conditions, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency, Anemia, Hemolytic Anemia, Splenectomy, and Bone Marrow Transplant. Dr. Rothman is board certified in American Board Of Pediatrics, Pediatric Hematology-Oncology.
