Why did you choose to work at Rainbow Pediatric Center? I learned about Rainbow when researching pediatric clinics in Jacksonville.

Additionally, when interviewing, I noticed that Rainbow focused heavily on family-centered care, and I knew this is where I wanted to be.
What do you enjoy about working with kids? I like that I am able to watch children grow and meet milestones. I also like the variety of patients and cases I see in pediatrics. It makes each day new and exciting.
What is your area of expertise? I specialized in pediatric primary care. My background is in pediatrics and NICU. I enjoy seeing infants, and treating patients with acute illnesses.
What do you enjoy doing when you are not at Rainbow Pediatrics? I enjoy spending time with family and friends. We recently moved to the area, so I also like to explore Jacksonville.
