We were proud to once again support the SoSo Strong Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation’s “Because Kids Should Live” Gala this past weekend at the Beau Rivage.

Our clinic has supported this wonderful event every year since its inception, and we are honored to continue standing behind its mission to support children and families affected by pediatric brain tumors and to help in the fight for a cure.

A wonderful evening for an important cause.

Every Friday we have a "song of the day" here in clinic. Today it is the 1979 classic "Please Don't Go" by KC and the Sunshine Band. A special dedication going out to Ashley.

We have loved having Ashley here for the last two years. Her last day is today! She will be greatly missed. We wish her the best!

Today we celebrated our 75th successful treatment of hyperbilirubinemia (jaundice) with home phototherapy since we implemented the program in 2020! That's 75 babies we did NOT have to readmit to the hospital!

4/14/26 update -- upon further research and the good memory of our patients and staff, it seems that we implemented the program in the fall of 2018 -- so we have treated even more patients than I realized!

Thank you for trusting us to care for your children!

We hope you had fun on Spring Break! We will be here and ready to see you when you get back next week!
