About me
Hi, my name is Dr. Minakshi Chaudhari or Dr. Mina for short. I am one of the pediatric rheumatologists. I'm glad to have the opportunity to present my credentials to you and share other information about myself. I hope this page will help you start to get to know me.
Biography
I come from a family of physicians and knew that I always wanted to be a physician. After completing my fellowship at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, I practiced pediatric rheumatology at Children's Hospital of Orange County for five years prior to joining the Southern California Permanente Medical Group.
About my practice
I really enjoy working with my members and their families. I do consider all of us as a team who work together to make your child better. My philosophy towards my members is that I treat them as I would want my own child to be treated by another physician. I feel very honored that members and their parents have entrusted me with their care and strive to treat them as I would my own family.
How I thrive
I firmly believe in Kaiser Permanente's philosophy of health in mind, body, and spirit and try to live it in my life every day. My family life is my major priority. I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children.
