      From the Doctor

      I love working with children and families. My goal as a pediatrician is to use evidence - based medicine to promote health and prevent disease.

      I stay busy balancing my part time work schedule with time spent at home with my two boys. For me personally, experiencing parenthood first hand has greatly helped me relate to other parents as we share common concerns and issues.

      My personal time is spent with my husband and two sons. We enjoy swimming, trips to the Jacksonville Zoo, and trips to Disney World. Our family passion is Gator football, as both my husband and I are UF alumni. We really enjoy living in Jacksonville and hope to be here for many years to come.
