About
Bio
General Pediatrician for 35 years in Southern California
Went to the University of Notre Dame and the UCLA Med School
Feel that my profession gives me the opportunity to be a healer
and just importantly a teacher and educator. The role of doctors
should be one of teamwork with the patients and in my case parents
to ensure health and a good environment in which patients can thrive
