Dear Families,

It's been a privilege to help you care for your children and teens during my years at LaTouche. I'll miss seeing you, your happy babies, toddlers, school age children and teens, but it's time for me to pass the torch to a new generation of pediatricians. I have retired as of mid-February after over 40 years as a pediatrician with more than half of my career here at LaTouche Peds. I am leaving you in the capable hands of the wonderful (and younger!) providers at LaTouche Pediatrics.

Thank you again for the privilege of helping care for your families over my 23 years at LaTouche. I wish you and your families all the best.

Sincerely,

Mary Blenkush, MD

We are excited to announce that Dr. Jaclin LaBarbera will be joining us in September.

Throughout medical school, Dr. LaBarbera knew that her heart was in working with children. After medical training at NYU, she stayed in New York City for pediatric residency at Cornell University, where she was involved in one of the first resident driven quality committees in the country. She then trained in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine at University of California, San Francisco. Upon leaving fellowship, she spent the next 7 years in critical care, working with seriously ill infants and children. In 2018, Dr. LaBarbera retired from critical care medicine to practice general pediatrics in a rural health clinic in Oregon. There, she became medical director of the pediatric clinic and inpatient service as well as taking up mountain biking. Since that time, she has practiced general pediatrics in New York and California and is excited to embark on a new adventure in Alaska.

Whether supporting a family through critical illness or helping them navigate new parenthood, Dr. LaBarbera loves how the whole family is involved in a child's care. She uses her prior ICU experience along with parenthood experiences in her work with families. She is especially passionate about breastfeeding and newborn medicine. She believes that the most important thing in pediatrics is forming relationships with families as they navigate the struggles of parenthood, medical complexity and wellness care. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, mountain biking, reading and wrangling her four boys.
