“My goal in establishing this practice is to provide excellent, comprehensive care for children and adolescents with a personal touch that is often not felt in a group practice setting. My experience as a general pediatrician along with the experience I have gained in raising three children of my large gives me the perspective and judgment needed to create such a practice.”
