Bio
I became a doctor to really get to know my patients to help them live well their whole lives. I didn’t enjoy a revolving door patient practice where I had less than ten minutes with my patients before I had to see another one. I decided enough is enough. I transitioned to a retainer based practice in 2009 with the guiding principle of quality over quantity and that relationships matter.
With over 12 years in private practice, I’m excited to be a part of a patient-centered direct medical care practice built around my patient’s needs. We focus solely on patient's most common medical issues to provide them with the best and most comprehensive health care including wellness and preventive medicine, acute and chronic disease management and enhanced coordination of care. Salerno Health and direct medical care are here to stay.

Problem children: In my experience a "problem child" is the product if parenting issues that are not effective with that particular child. Recommend that you have a child psychologist meet with you and your child. Be prepared to hear things about your parenting approach that need to be altered. Otherwise, the problems will persist.

Ibuprofen in kids: Unfortunately, recommendations for dosing of medications is, at least in my state, against regulations since your not established as a patient with my practice. Making recommendations is ok but actually dosing anything is a line i can't cross. Contact your pediatrician or primary care physician to get recommendation.
