    Catherine Zorc, MD, is a board-certified primary care pediatrician. A former teacher, she works with families to get the best education possible for every child. She is also an advocate for foster children, working to make sure they get the medical care they need. I was a second grade teacher before I went into medicine. I saw how hard it was for families to get help for their children. I thought I could do more to help families as a physician, working alongside them to help their kids.It’s exciting to work with a family from the day the child is born until the child is grown up. I enjoy building a relationship with families, and helping families along the way as they raise their children. It gives you the chance to help families cope with illness from the beginning until the child recovers, or helping the family cope during the most difficult challenges. I’m passionate about helping parents help their children get the best education possible — from making sure the school fits the child’s needs to making any accommodations necessary.I want to support mothers who breastfeed. There is a lot that can be done to help get breastfeeding mothers the help they need. I work with Nemours Health and Prevention Services. I help Nemours partner with school systems to improve health for children. I’m also an advocate for children in foster care, ensuring they get the medical attention they need.

    I completed a residency in obstetrics and gynecology in which I primarily worked with adult patients, however I still felt connected to the younger women and adolescents that came to our clinic. As I was initially torn between pursuing a career in pediatrics or OB/GYN as a medical student, I found that the field of pediatric and adolescent gynecology allowed me to pursue both of these interests. And I love working with children and teens — they are resilient and full of energy, which is often contagious. I’m passionate about empowering girls and teens to make healthy choices through crucial moments in their youth by providing them with useful information to help in guiding those decisions.Outside of work, I am passionate about culinary experiences, travel and spending time with my family. I believe in treating my patients in a manner in which I would want my own family members to be treated. I try to be nice to everyone I meet, from coworkers to patients and their families. I also believe in providing comprehensive care for girls and teens — in a non-judgmental, friendly and confidential manner. Dr. Patel is highly rated in 7 conditions, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Painful Menstrual Periods, Pelvic Congestion Syndrome, Hydrocele, Menorrhagia, and Intrauterine Device Insertion. Dr. Patel is board certified in American Board Of Obstetrics & Gynecology.

    Justin D’Antuono, MD, FAAP, is a board-certified primary care pediatrician, and a fellow of the American Association of Pediatrics. He has been working with children for much of his adult life, and enjoys working to keep kids healthy throughout childhood. Ever since high school, I’ve loved working with kids. In college, I volunteered at a major children’s hospital in the northeast. I like watching children grow and develop throughout their childhood. I’ve always found helping sick children, and helping them do what kids should be doing — being happy and healthy — very rewarding. I’m passionate about preventive care to help keep children from getting sick. Simple things such as nutrition, fitness and good sleep habits, if started at an early age, will have a big pay-off later on in life in the overall health and well-being of a child.It’s also important to me to help parents with their everyday challenges, and to aid in developing parenting techniques and strategies for families. Parenting is the toughest job in the world, but it’s the best job in the world. The home atmosphere plays a huge role in a child’s development. I have two of my own kids, so I can offer practical suggestions based on what has worked in my family. We are moving our practice toward the medical home model where the family can feel that this is a place where we can take care of more than just medical problems, but also social/emotional challenges. I make myself as accessible as possible to my patients, whether it be by phone, email or appointment times, in order to fully address any concerns that parents may have. Dr. D'antuono is highly rated in 5 conditions, according to our data. His clinical expertise encompasses Food Allergy, Obesity in Children, Common Cold, and Cluster Headache. Dr. D'antuono is board certified in American Board Of Pediatrics.

Prior to medical school, I was a daycare teacher and an elementary school teacher. I enjoy being around children and serving as an advocate for them.

    As a kid, I enjoyed science, particularly biology. I also had a strong desire to help people, which is why I chose medicine. Today, my expertise is in child abuse pediatrics, where I medically evaluate children for abuse or neglect, and help differentiate accidental from inflicted (abusive) injuries. During my first year in medical school, I was fortunate to get to know Dr. Lee Salk, a well-known child psychologist. His influence stimulated my interest in the physical and emotional well-being of children. From then on, after working with remarkably resilient children, I know I made the right choice. I’m passionate about preventing accidental and abusive childhood injuries. I like to help improve parenting skills and talk about effective and appropriate discipline.

    Dr. Karen M. Kelly is a board-certified, primary care pediatrician with more than 20 years of experience in private practice. She is a fellow, American Academy of Pediatrics, and board member of Heal Autism Now Delaware (HAND). I was always interested in medicine, even as a young girl. Then, when I was in high school and college, I remember being interested in the way kids’ minds worked, and wanted to help them stay in good health. This helped decide my path through medical school and, 20-some years later, to where I am today. Children are also so fun — it really makes for a happy career. I’m really passionate about the interactions I have with the kids — and their families. I do all I can to help each family raise a healthy, happy child. I urge them as strongly as I can on things they should be doing to ensure good health, including things like proper exercise and nutrition. At the same time, I like to have as pleasant an interaction with each child and family as I can — it makes things better for us all. I try to help each child and family see the importance of good health and good decisions when it comes to daily lifestyle choices like food and exercise. I also try to treat each child in the way that works best for them — what’s most appropriate for their age and what works best for their individual personality. I try and get each kid involved in their own care, so I don’t just talk to the family. That usually works well — unless, of course, a child is so young that he or she can’t talk yet. Dr. Kelly is highly rated in 1 condition, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Obesity in Children, Croup, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU). Dr. Kelly is board certified in American Board Of Pediatrics.

    Dr. Judith N. Feick is a board-certified, primary care pediatrician with more than 25 years of experience in private practice. She is a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics (FAAP) and member, American Medical Association, Wilmington New Castle Pediatric Association and the Medical Society of Delaware. I’ve always wanted to be an advocate for people in need, especially children. One of the greatest joys of my life is seeing a child get better — and seeing him or her grow up over the years. In fact, some of my earliest patients have gone on to graduate from college, get jobs, have families of their own, and their children are now my patients. I could not imagine a day without kids in it. I like to stay up to date with the latest developments in medicine, from current events that affect us all to the latest breakthroughs in research and pediatric treatments. I do a lot of reading (for fun!) on medicine and child and adolescent development. I read textbooks, as well as pharmaceutical and medical journals. I love the science of medicine and I love the art of it too. I do it so I can be at my best as a doctor, and so I can pass on any useful info to patients and families about how to stay in good health and maintain proper fitness and nutrition. Nothing is more delightful to me than seeing kids get better and stay that way. In my work, I believe this involves being willing to go beyond what is required or expected, and really connecting to my patients on a personal level. They’re a part of my life and I hope they feel I'm a part of theirs as well.Outside of my work, I volunteer with church organizations, help raise money for organizations and am active in a women’s group. I've worked with Family Promise, a group that helps the homeless. I've volunteered with the Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts, and I have taught 4th and 5th grade classes on health and medicine. I have worked at career fairs at St. Mark’s High School. I have spoke to a group of University of Delaware students about medical careers. I'm also interested in mission work. Dr. Feick is highly rated in 1 condition, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Obesity in Children, Developmental Dysphasia Familial, Delayed Growth, and Croup.
