About

I specialize in comprehensive infant care using a developmental and family-centered approach. I focus on detailed assessment of feeding mechanics, growth patterns, and early developmental milestones, utilizing both clinical observation and evidence-based screening tools during telehealth visits. I'm experienced in managing common infant concerns including reflux, colic, and feeding difficulties, while maintaining close coordination with families to support optimal health trajectories during these critical early months.

Services offered

I provide comprehensive telehealth evaluations for infants addressing feeding challenges, gastroesophageal reflux, colic, and growth monitoring. My approach combines clinical assessment with practical guidance on positioning, feeding techniques, and behavioral strategies tailored to each infant's needs. I work closely with parents to identify feeding difficulties—whether breastfeeding latch issues, formula tolerance, or introduction of solids—and develop individualized management plans. Typical telehealth sessions include detailed history-taking, observation of feeding or behavior patterns via video, developmental assessment using standardized screening, and clear recommendations with follow-up to ensure progress. I also coordinate care with other providers and offer guidance on vaccinations and preventive health for infants from newborn through early childhood.
