About me
I am the second of seven children and the oldest girl. I grew up providing care to others, so medicine seemed to be a natural fit for me. I have wanted to be a pediatrician since I was very young and I am so thankful that I get to live out my dreams every single day. My love for pediatrics has not wavered even after all these years. I am from the Bronx, N.Y. and my parents are Nigerian immigrants who made sure to instill love of culture in myself and my siblings, which I try to carry with me no matter where I live.
I have provided care in various health care settings such as federally qualified health centers (FQHC), hospital-based pediatric clinics and private practice offices, both large and small. I have also worked in urban, suburban and rural locations in various cities including Harrisburg, Penn., Harlem, N.Y. (New York City), Atlanta metro area, Barnesville, Ga. and Columbus, Ga. I believe that these varied experiences in my career have helped me become more insightful in my medical practice.
About my practice
The reason why I love being a pediatrician is that we have the opportunity to care for a patient from birth until adulthood and help them learn how to live a healthy, productive life. I believe that the impact a pediatrician can have on a patient and his or her family can be very instrumental to the well-being of the patient and it is our responsibility to partner with them in their wellness journey.
How I thrive
I love sports and traveling and if I can somehow combine the two, that is a bonus. My ultimate traveling goal is to visit each of the seven continents at least once in my lifetime. I have visited four continents thus far, so I am halfway there! I also enjoy spending time at home with my husband and son.
