I am a pediatric physician with over a decade and a half of experience in inpatient and outpatient pediatrics. Due to the growing need of my pediatric patient population, I completed a mini-fellowship in primary pediatric psychiatric health to offer timely diagnosis and treatment of pediatric patients with mental health disorders.

As a pediatric physician, seeing the great need for Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis for patients to access services as soon as possible, I obtained additional certification as an Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist.

As a breastfeeding advocate, I see many patients in private practice with breastfeeding dysfunction. I am now a member of The American Laser Study Club. I felt it was important to be able to evaluate my patients for oral restrictions and relieve oral restrictions when other methods have failed. I currently perform preoperative consultations for patients with oral restrictions, otherwise known as lip/tongue ties, and I am able to perform in-office frenotomies if natural remedies to improve breastfeeding and other conditions associated with oral restrictions have not been successful.

Concussion diagnosis and post-concussion syndrome management, including curriculum accommodations, return-to-play guidelines, and referrals for prolonged post-concussion symptoms, are available.

As a newer practice, but not a new practitioner, I have no waitlist for general pediatrics or my specialized services. I am more than happy to function as a primary care physician or a consultant.

Selecting a pediatrician is an anxiety-provoking process for new parents. For this reason, free prenatal interviews are encouraged in my practice.

I look forward to working with you and your family. NOW ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS!
