What do you enjoy most about working with children and families?

I enjoy seeing children and families grow and change over time. My patients make me smile every day and continue to teach me new things. I also love that as a primary care provider, I can work with children and families to make health choices that can stay with them for their lifetime and hopefully help them prevent bad health outcomes as they get older.

How would you describe your approach to pediatric care?

I view my relationship with my patients and their families as a partnership. I try to provide the medical and health-related knowledge that I have to help my patients stay healthy. And I want the care that I provide to be high quality and equitable for all of my patients.

What’s one thing you want caregivers and patients to know when they come to see you?

My overall goal for all of my patients is for them to be safe, healthy, and happy. I will provide advice to help achieve this goal and work with them to achieve their goals too.
