Overview
As a developmental pediatrician, I enjoy working with children with a variety of complex developmental and behavioral challenges. I often have the opportunity to spend a lot of time with children and their families, which I find very rewarding. The focus of my work is to identify strategies within the family, school and community to support a child in reaching their full potential. My special interests include parenting, the parent-child connection and the way that connection ties into developmental and behavioral outcomes.
