A Personal Note from Dr. Donna

Children Natural Health
I know that nothing is more concerning to parents as when their children become ill and simple common sense home cures do not take care of the condition.

My approach to pediatric medicine involves seeing each child as an individual and ensuring that all aspects of your child’s health needs are being met.

I take the time to get to know your children and your family in order to develop an individualized treatment plan that uses the safest, gentlest and most effective treatments available. This includes ensuring proper nutrition, sleep, growth development, behavioral health, and emotional well-being. As your family’s primary care physician, I am committed to assisting you in giving your children the care they need to thrive.
