Serving children, and the parents of children, is a privilege. As a father I understand that children can be our greatest joy and greatest vulnerability. They can be complex, funny, heartbreaking, uplifting, and all of these things at once - and my goal as a physician is to let them be all of those things. I am here to help. That's why I'm a doctor, and why I'm here.
