Welcome to MD Kid Care!

Parenting issues? Need help with baby care or breast feeding? Lori Ann De Gasperis R.N. is available for individual counseling, by appointment only.

A child's journey through life may be filled with many twists and turns. As pediatricians we are interested in enhancing the development of the child, the adolescent and of both parents. We want you as parents to be able to anticipate difficulties and to cope with emotions that accompany transitions.

We believe that parenthood is about love, respect and limits. We believe that a good parent-child-doctor relationship begins with trust, compassion and communication. Our goal is to meet all of them to
allow your child to grow to his full potential and become an independent and healthy individual.
