ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS
I am excited to be part of the GI For Kids team after working primarily in pulmonology and general pediatrics for 20 years. I love that I can use the knowledge that I have gained in these areas to help our gastroenterology patients now. As a mother myself, I have always had a passion for working with children and strive to build long lasting and trusting relationships with my patients and their families. I have special interest in implementing modern medicine along with holistic treatments. As the inpatient coordinator, my goal is to ensure that we work as a team with both you and your child to achieve the best care and treatment possible during their hospital stay and after.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and children. We are an avid soccer family and love watching our favorite team, Atlanta FC, as well as playing on local teams. I am also passionate about supporting the Cystic Fibrosis and KidsFact foundations.
