Summary

I am board certified in pediatrics and board eligible in clinical genetics. I spent 37 years as primary physician and genetics consultant in a 600 bed institution for the developmentally disabled. I retired in 2014 but wish to remain active in a outpatient clinical pediatrics setting. I enjoy the opportunity to teach students, residents, and nurses.
