Idea of Care

I went into pediatrics because I love seeing the journey from birth to young adulthood, and I hope to be a part of and support everyone on that journey. I practice trauma-informed care techniques, as each patient brings their own history into their visit. I constantly learn from my patients and value this as one of the most incredible parts of my practice.
