About Me
Dr. Loretto Glynn always wanted to have a job in which she could help people. That, along with her love of science, led her to a career in medicine and pediatric surgery.
As part of the team at NYU Langone Pediatric Associates—Mineola, Dr. Glynn provides surgical care to children from the time they are born until they are 18 years old. She manages a wide variety of conditions that affect the neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, and extremities. These commonly include appendicitis, hernia, pyloric stenosis—a condition that prevents food from moving from the stomach to the intestines in newborns—deformities, breast masses, neck masses and cysts, and pediatric tumors. She also places and maintains feeding tubes for babies and children who are unable to eat or drink and specializes in minimally invasive laparoscopic and thoracoscopic procedures.
Dr. Glynn works as part of a team focused on meeting the needs of young patients and their entire family. They have surgical and medical expertise and facilitate communication with parents and referring doctors. Dr. Glynn’s philosophy is that children should receive medical care from professionals who are specifically trained to care for them, and that this care should be provided in a child-friendly environment dedicated to the delivery of quality care.
In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Glynn is a member of a multidisciplinary research team that investigates the causes and early detection signs of necrotizing enterocolitis, a condition that causes infection and inflammation in the intestines of premature newborns.
Dr. Glynn has received multiple teaching awards and been named a top doctor by Chicago and West Suburban Living magazines and to Castle Connolly’s America’s Top Doctors®.
