About Me
As a pediatrician and the mother of two young children, I understand the need for reliable information about children’s health. I am dedicated to providing parents with sound, practical, and up-to-date medical advice. I am a spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics, and I have given lectures on children’s health to parents and other pediatricians.
To give parents trustworthy information about nutrition, I coauthored The Pediatrician’s Guide to Feeding Babies & Toddlers. I am a freelance writer for The New York Times’ parenting section and a member of the Forbes health advisory board. I am also a medical expert for The Bump and BabyCenter pregnancy and parenting websites.
I have received research awards and recognition for being a compassionate doctor. In addition, I have been included in Castle Connolly’s “Top Doctors” series for the New York metro area and named to Super Doctors’ “Pediatrics” list for the New York metro area.
