My approach with patients and their families is to be welcoming and attentive, so that I can identify their healthcare needs. I try my best to listen carefully, as this is the best way for me to understand and address a patient’s concerns and questions. I decided to go to medical school early in my college years, because I found it to be a perfect blend of service to others and lifelong learning. Pediatric medicine was most interesting, since it was upbeat and dynamic working with children and adolescents as they develop and grow. The most rewarding part of my job is the connection and trust that is developed with patients. Being in primary care pediatrics, I follow patients from birth through their college years. I’ve been here long enough that I'm getting former patients coming back with their own children. Knowing that it was their own parents that chose me as their pediatrician, it’s a huge compliment that they now chose me to be their child’s doctor. They must have valued and trusted the care they received.
