I am delighted as a board-certified family medicine doctor to have the opportunity to provide care and treat patients of all ages, thereby cultivating life-long relationships. My goal is to get to know my patients personally, listen to their concerns with compassion, and empower them to make educated and informed decisions about their health. I am passionate about preventive care, lifestyle medicine and women’s health.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY and obtained my Bachelor of Science in Biology at Pace University. I completed my medical school training at University of Medicine and Health Sciences (UMHS), St. Kitts, and completed my family medicine residency training at St. Luke’s University Health Network – Anderson Campus. Moving to the Lehigh Valley area was a refreshing change of scenery.

Outside work, I enjoy reading fiction and romance novels, cuddling and spoiling my cats, going to see movies and Broadway shows, and spending time with family and friends.

“I am very skeptical about medical care if I sense any disconnect or impatience. I include the staff's service before even seeing the doctor. It makes me uncomfortable when a doctor is not readily available and several weeks are needed before a visit. However, this has not been the case with St.Lukes so far. I am so happy to have a favorable experience. Thank you for taking great care in choosing your doctors and their staff. It shows!”

“Dr. Clavin = n?mero 1!! Hands down! I have never felt so free to explain how I really feel and what's really bothering me because she doesn't display any trace of prejudgment. She makes me feel very welcomed. Not a cold, transactional experience that are common with providers. She genuinely wants to help and listen. I will always recommend her and hope that young medical students are able to intern with her so they can see the impact bedside manner can have on even the most vulnerable patients. St. Luke's struck gold with Dr. Clavin and would do well to keep her onboard!”

“The staff all worked very well together to make this appointment happen. They had to schedule me for something very specific, which was the nursing assistant teaching me how to do my injection as well as schedule me with Dr. Clavin. From the ladies who schedule my appointments. To learning from Braden And the continued support and medical advice from Dr. Clavin to continue to improve my health. I'll ran like clockwork. Definitely a very good experience.”

“I moved to New Jersey from Pennsylvania about a year and a half ago. I ended up with no medical insurance for about nine months and had many concerns when I came to Dr. Clavin to be my primary care physician I've had a lot of health issues, but I moved to Pennsylvania when I was sick and St. Luke's has literally saved my life and I would not go anywhere else. I am sincere when I say that it is not easy to find a primary care Doctor Who is both knowledgeable and you can feel comfortable with and will work with you to address your concerns and really help you improve your health. Dr. Claven is also very quick to respond to messages in a very clear communicator. Dr. Clavin truly cares and she has really helped me and continues to help me strive for better health. I feel so grateful that she came to the primary care Office as a provider *NSYNC she is an absolute blessing. Before I came to St.Luke's in Pennsylvania, I unfortunately had a very long string of doctors who did not do any of the things that I mentioned above. The reason I say this is, I'm not sure people who are familiar and used to St. Luke's realize what an asset this hospital network and their providers are to this community. Dr. Claven outstanding and is no exception to this rule.”

I had zero anxiety explaining the reasons for my visit and any other concerns. The way she explained everything to make sure I 100% understood is something I unfortunately haven't seen in other physicians. I felt confident and reassured after my visit and will most definitely be recommending Dr. Clavin.”
