I am a board-cer­ti­fied pedi­a­tri­cian with over 15 years of expe­ri­ence in out­pa­tient and hos­pi­tal pedi­atrics. When you make an appoint­ment for your child with me, know that you are in safe and kind hands, the hands of a moth­er who also knows med­i­cine well. I am very pas­sion­ate about pedi­atric patient care but strong­ly believe this can­not be accom­plished with­out a trust­ing rela­tion­ship with the parent/​guardian, there­fore I work hard towards build­ing rela­tion­ships based on mutu­al trust and respect with the fam­i­lies I take care of. I like to include par­ents in every step of the deci­sion-mak­ing process and always ask for their input in var­i­ous sce­nar­ios. I love to lis­ten to my patients, they are the best part of my job, not a sin­gle day goes by when they do not make me laugh or smile, I like to address them by their names/​nicknames (I make notes of their pre­ferred names in my notes) and have mem­o­rized thou­sands of names over the years. I like to dis­cuss growth, speech and devel­op­ment at each well-check for the lit­tle ones and like to include dis­cus­sions about screen time, social media and peer influ­ence for the teens.

In my pre­vi­ous prac­tice over 11 years, my rela­tion­ships had got­ten so strong that par­ents would call to update me about impor­tant things or mile­stones like my daugh­ter graduated…let Dr. Mir know or that we went to the ER last night, does the Dr. know? Ask Dr. what does she think about us buy­ing a tram­po­line for the kids this sum­mer. Some­times it’s just for reas­sur­ance that there is some­one there who cares about our child as we do as par­ents. I look for­ward to devel­op­ing the same lev­el of trust with all of you through my new role here with Duly.

"The doctor was knowledgeable, but she explained everything so quickly that is was difficult to understand. It was as if she's used to saying the same thing about the body's anatomy that it rolled too quickly off of her tongue. Didn't leave room for questions."
