She attended Hofstra University as a dual degree student obtaining both a Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science in Physician Assistant Studies with distinction.

She is also passionate about mental health and obtained a minor in Psychology during her undergraduate studies. Outside of work, Lily enjoys spending with family and friends, reading, and going to the beach.

Best advice you have ever been given- A person who asks many questions is only a fool for a minute, but a person who asks no questions is a fool for a lifetime. Always stay curious and keep learning as a medical provider.

Best parenting advice you give to parents- It doesn’t matter how many people tell you things about your child, no one knows them better then you do. Trust your instincts.

About Elizabeth:

Elizabeth graduated from Mount Saint Mary College in Newburgh, NY in May 2019. She started her career as a Registered Nurse at Cohen Children’s Medical Center in September 2019 on a complex medical surgical floor. Elizabeth decided to expand her medical scope by going back to school and obtaining her masters as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner at Molloy University. She graduated in August 2024.

Reason why you wanted to work in pediatrics? I saw a PNP growing up and I always admired how she included me in every conversation about my health. She made a note to ask about my life and what I was doing which made each visit feel really personal. I hope to do that with my patients.

Best advice you have ever been given- Be yourself

Best parenting advice you give to parents- Do what is best for your own child

Ask for Elizabeth or Liliana when booking your next appointment! Be sure to say hello if you see them around the office!
