Overview

Philosophy of care | In order to treat a child effectively, it's important to actively listen to what the parents are saying. Health is more than not having disease. It's also behavior, development and safety. If we, as pediatricians, are effective, we can help parents raise a child who will turn into a healthy and happy adult. More information is available to parents than ever before through television, print media and the Internet. Much of that information is erroneous. So a pediatrician needs to take care of a child's current problem, initiate prevention when necessary and serve as a trusted resource for parents. | Why I entered medicine | Pediatric medicine is such a joy that I can't think of anything better. It is a real privilege to observe a child's development from infancy through the teen years. | Community involvement | I am an advisory board member for both the Mercy Special Learning Center and the Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Allentown. I volunteer during medical trips to Haiti. | Personal interests | I am a voracious reader, often having 2 or 3 books going at the same time. I also enjoy star gazing. In addition, I like to run, cycle and do yoga. I enjoy going to Iron Pigs baseball games and am a long-time fan of the St. Louis Cardinals.
