I specialize in the prevention and optimal development of children from the prenatal stage (pregnancy) to adolescence. While we have a special focus on the first 1000 days of life, we see boys and girls of all ages.My training and experience center on areas of high pediatric complexity and frequent concern for moms and dads:Pediatric Nutrition and Precision Medicine: We address problems of childhood nutrition and cellular development with an integrative approach.
