Novant Health Robinhood Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine

Growing up, my pediatrician was kind, funny and, most importantly, caring. Ever since I was 4 years old, I knew I wanted to be just like him, helping kids stay happy and healthy. \n I find walking alongside parents on the parenting journey to be a great joy. Parents know their children best, and it is a privilege to work together with them to find solutions to any problems and challenges. As a pediatrician, I also get to watch children grow from infants to children to teens and finally into adults. My goal is to ensure all children feel cared for and heard, so I make each appointment personalized and engaging for the patient. Then as they grow up, I make sure children and teens feel empowered and informed to make the healthy life choices that will help them flourish. \n Today, I am the chair of the pediatric division at Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center, and I am a member of Alpha Omega Alpha, a national medical honor society. \n In my free time, I love being active and spending time outdoors. I have a wonderful husband and three sons. As a family, we enjoy camping, fishing, golf and church activities. Some of my hobbies include sewing and cheering on the West Virginia University Mountaineers.
