Padmini Purwar, MD

As a child, I was always curious and observant of everything around me. When it came time to choose a professional field of study, medicine made sense to me. It spoke to me because it is evidence-based and discovery-driven, the two characteristics to which I’ve always been drawn. I chose to specialize in pediatrics because I enjoy interacting with children and taking care of their health and wellbeing.

I treat children from infancy through 21 years of age. I see patients for well-child visits, routine immunization, travel counseling and recommendations, and urgent sick evaluations. As a mother of two lovely children, I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to serve children and their families. I don’t recommend treatments that I wouldn’t want for my own children.

My team strives to learn the latest in pediatric research and clinical recommendations for the benefit of our patients. We believe in providing compassionate and comprehensive care. While I am particularly sensitive to the needs of underserved children and families who are unable to advocate for themselves, our team prides itself on delivering the best care to all of our patients.
