Overview

I am a pediatrician with a background in primary care who enjoys caring for pediatric patients, adolescents and young adults in the urgent care setting. As a pediatrician, I love the opportunity to care for patients as well as providing reassurance to their families. It is rewarding to give parents treatments and advice that helps to improve the health of their child. I admire the resiliency of the pediatric population and their ability to make me smile even when they are not feeling well. I strive to make the patients as comfortable as possible during our interactions so they have a positive experience with our wonderful healthcare system.
