Kathleen Mooney, MD, FAAP
Care Philosophy
I believe pediatric care is most effective when children, parents, and pediatrician work together toward a common goal of good health. I encourage questions from parents and children, and I appreciate the opportunity to educate families about illnesses and treatment options and to work together through the challenges and the joys of parenting. Whenever possible, my focus is on preventive health care, integrating my training in traditional evidence-based medicine with a more holistic approach to wellness |
