Research Center: Center for Clinical and Translational Research
"I enjoy building relationships with kids and their families to help discover how a patients unique strengths and challenges affect all members of their families, both individually and collectively. This family-centered emphasis is core to developmental and behavioral pediatrics. The opportunity to share so closely in families interests and concerns is my greatest privilege as a physician, whether addressing learning differences, social behaviors, tics or other developmental and behavioral features."
