A few words about me...

I have been a practicing community pediatrician for 30 years.  I did my residency at Bellevue-New York University.  My interest is in school health and  I was, in fact, a high school teacher at the Taft School in Watertown, Ct. from 1966-1971.  My joys are travel, reading, Broadway theater, and gardening. I am fluent in Spanish. Hobbies include digital photography.
