Empowering families through care and education
Meet Dr. Moore
Dr. Moore is a board certified pediatrician with over a decade of experience. Special interests include neurodiversity, behavior, and mental health. She believes in advocating for yourself and those that are unable to advocate for themselves. Dr. Moore most enjoys the teaching concept of medicine. Kids, like adults, tend to be more receptive when they understand the why and how.
“I chose Pediatrics because of the resilience, enthusiasm and personality children have in such tiny little packages.”
Dr. Moore’s Care Philosophy
I am passionate about patient care. I make a point to ensure my patients and their families are well informed and involved in making decisions in their health care. Guidance and support are important in any relationship, healthcare should be no different.
I aspire to teach my families about wellness and development, and advocate for them when needed. I pride myself on being able to communicate with my families, educating them along the way.
My favorite part about being a pediatrician has always been witnessing my patients grow literally and figuratively. Not only do the children grow before my eyes, but the families do as well. I am always amazed and proud to see confidence build with every parental experience. The first-time parent once nervous about changing a diaper turns into a confident, proud grade-school parent rooting for their child on the baseball field.
