As a pediatrician, one of my passions is advocating for the health and well-being of children.
Having cared for many children during my ten years in the Navy on active duty and my five years at Canyon View Pediatrics, I’ve realized that often our goal shouldn’t be forcing children to be a certain way but embracing all that they can become. Since moving to South Utah County 5 years ago, I’ve put this philosophy into action by serving on the Board of Directors for Kids Who Count.
Kids Who Count is a non-profit organization serving Nebo SchoolDistrict. The group is dedicated to bringing minimal to no cost early intervention services to children 0 to 3 years old who have delays in speaking, walking, or social development. Over the last year, following many years of planning and organization, I’ve also been able to bring Autism treatment services to the area, allowing families to find help closer to home instead of traveling to Provo, Lehi, or even further.
