Specialities:
PediatricsI am a general pediatrician providing comprehensive health care for children from cradle (birth) through college (21 years of age). My goal is to better understand each child, their families and support their endeavor to nurture healthy, happy and confident kids.
I am board certified in pediatrics and a fellow in the American Academy of Pediatrics. I’ve been in practice for over 25 years and love all aspects of general pediatrics. I have a special interest in diagnosis and management of asthma and also behavioral health, specifically ADHD and anxiety disorders.
I grew up in the Poconos, love the outdoors, bicycling, hiking and traveling. I am active in the Rotary Club, an international service organization, and belong to a book club. I am married and the mother of four wonderful children.
