ABOUT
GET TO KNOW ME
As a resident, I thought I'd ruled out pediatrics and academics as specialities. But as I was on rounds in the NICU, I realized we weren't just rounding on patients, but souls. If I was going to spend half my life in training, the pediatric population was the one to do it for. That's how I ended up in the role I'm in today."
FROM OUR PATIENTS
"Above and beyond, Dr. St. Peter gave my daughter a new lease on her life. After suffering for years she is pain free and lighter as a whole. Above and beyond, the entire staff, from the beginning of our journey up unto this closure. Thank you, each and every one of you, SO much."
