Hi there! I’m so happy you found my page! I am a board certified pediatrician and also a mom. I decided to create this website not as your doctor but as your friend. I am also a mom, just like you, so I know where you are coming from.
I have been in practice for 20 years and have learned so much from my children and my patients. This site is a casual site to share what I have learned. This is not intended for medical advice or consultations. I have just grown and learned so much in these last few years, that I wanted to share it with all of you.
I am a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend, etc. but I am also ME and I want to share with all of you the importance of not forgetting YOU. I hope you enjoy my posts. They are intended to remind you about important moments and topics that come up while parenting.
Parenting is a beautiful but sometimes frustrating and frightening journey. I want to remind you that you are not alone. Many patients come in with the same concerns and worries regardless of ethnicity, culture or background. I have found this so interesting.
If we really stop to listen to each other we will realize we are more similar than we think. I hope you enjoy my blog. Join me every Wednesday for a new topic!
