Pediatric medicine

Bio

I am a general pediatrician in suburban southeast Michigan. I am the founding partner in a 7 provider practice. I have been practicing for 22 years. For 15 years, I provided staff coverage and taught the inpatient pediatric service at our hospital. Through the teaching service, I have developed a community reputation for caring for developmentally challenged, medically complex children. I take pride in helping these special families navigate their complicated normals and enjoy their children! As a business owner, physician and mother of 6, I consider myself an expert in work/life balance and personal wellness.
