We are so blessed. In this holiday rush, I am going to stop, reflect, and celebrate my wonderful team and our fantastic patient families. Anybody doing this knows that the fuel that keeps us going is the spirit. It is about the light, keeping smiles on people's faces, soothing souls, and trying to bring balance in a topsy-turvy world. There is never any judgment. Only education and patience, with the hopes of future continued healing.

This has not been easy. But, God has seen me through thus far and I know that I will continue to be guided for more years to come. Thank you friends who have supported us through the dark times. Thank you family who have listened to our doubts. Thank you guides who have sustained me thus far...and most importantly, Thank you to Ms. D, Mrs. B, Mary, Angela, and Kambrea. I am truly grateful and full of light.

Hello ASK Families,

We wanted to let you know that we are seeing a very high amount of strep throat cases in the greater Tallahassee area. We wanted to alert you given that some of the strep infections are unusual in their presentation.

Normally, Strep throat is caused by Group A Strep which is a type of bacteria. The symptoms of strep throat are generally sore throat, headache, stomach pain, and fever. Once diagnosed with strep throat, it is VERY important to be treated with antibiotics since the infection can go to and affect the heart.

Recently, we have been seeing patients who have been diagnosed with strep after having a recurrent cough over the course of several days. Some patients may or may NOT have a sore throat or a fever. Some other patients have been having vomiting as well.

If you believe that your child has been exposed to strep throat at school or in the community and your child is currently having three of the symptoms noted above, please contact the office for possible testing for a strep infection.

We are also still seeing RSV, Flu, and common cold infections as well, so please be patient with us for scheduling, but we would be happy to see you. Take care!

We recently received a complaint to our office from a client who insinuated that they likely wouldn’t be able to get an appointment since our office caters to people of less means. I was taken aback that they hadn’t received the memo or were familiar with our philosophy.

ASK Pediatrics has ALWAYS been dedicated to upholding health equity. This means that we have families from all different socioeconomic, racial, cultural, and religious backgrounds who receive quality care. Moreover, in this day and age with insurance benefits lacking for some, we still make sure that our families are respected, treated with care, and have a medical plan that meets their child’s needs. This is not just a business for me, it’s a calling.

There is no greater importance than seeing your patient. Really looking at who they are, where that came from, what they like and who they want to become. Respecting family dynamics is critical and fostering care, trust, and cooperation with families is absolutely essential to this practice. I’m sure to some this sounds ridiculous, even trivial— but it is foundation.

This will continue to be our practice with medicine and we are honored by all of our families 🙏🏾💕
