Each member of our team chose pediatric care deliberately β and shows up for families the way they'd want someone to show up for theirs.

Pediatric Allergist & Immunologist
Allergies don't pause for childhood. My goal is to give every child the freedom to play, eat, and breathe without fear β using the most current evidence to chart a clear path forward.
Clinical approach: Skin-prick testing, food challenge protocols, and oral immunotherapy tailored to each child's age and tolerance.
Dr. Okonkwo spent 45 minutes with us on the first visit. My daughter left holding a sticker and a plan. We left holding hope.
β Melissa T., mom of a 6-year-old with peanut allergy

Pediatric Pulmonologist
A child's lungs are still growing. Early intervention doesn't just treat symptoms β it shapes the trajectory of lung development for life.
Clinical approach: Spirometry, bronchodilator response testing, and personalized asthma action plans co-written with families in plain language.
My son's school nurse called me three times last year. Since starting with Dr. Whitfield's plan, she hasn't called once.
β David K., father of a 9-year-old with exercise-induced asthma

Immunotherapy Nurse & Asthma Educator
Education is the most powerful medicine I dispense. When a parent truly understands their child's triggers, the ER visits stop.
Clinical approach: Subcutaneous and sublingual immunotherapy administration, nebulizer training, and school accommodation letter support.
Priya walked us through the EpiPen protocol until I stopped shaking when I practiced it. That's the kind of care that changes everything.
β Carmen R., mother of a toddler with multiple food allergies

Pediatric Nutrition & Allergy Counselor
A peanut-free lunch doesn't have to be a joyless one. I help families build adventurous, safe, nutrient-complete diets that grow with their child.
Clinical approach: Elimination diet design, reintroduction protocols, school meal planning, and growth monitoring for children on restricted diets.
Our son finally stopped being the kid who couldn't eat at birthday parties. Dr. Herrera gave us a safe chocolate cake recipe on the spot.
