When I first saw a sick child with diabetes return to health after giving insulin and fluids I knew endocrinology was the specialty for me. I approach every sick child with fresh eyes, listen carefully, and work together with families on a treatment plan that is right for them. It is exciting to use cutting edge technologies to help children but I balance this by using healthy habits whenever we can to prevent disease. Maine woods and waters are my natural element, so for me it is a “dream job” living here and helping children grow up healthy.
