Pediatrician serving Paramount
Trusted Pediatric Guidance for Paramount Families
Paramount is a tight-knit working community where parents are juggling a lot, and where good pediatric guidance can be hard to schedule between shifts. The free scripts and weekly videos bring 40 years of pediatric experience to your kitchen table, in the time you actually have.
Paramount parents do not call me because everything is going wrong. They usually call because one specific thing is harder than they expected. A toddler who refuses to sleep in their own bed. A first grader at Mokler or Roosevelt who cries every Sunday night. A nine-year-old whose teacher is now mentioning ADHD. A teen who is angrier than they used to be. These are exactly the moments the Script Pack was written for.
The most common thing I tell Paramount parents is that you are not failing. You are paying attention. The instinct that something is off is usually correct, and the earlier we talk it through, the easier the path forward. After 40 years in pediatrics I can usually tell within a few minutes whether you are looking at a phase, a developmental shift, or something that benefits from a more structured plan.
I am board-certified in pediatrics and neonatology, fellowship trained at UCLA, and have received the Patient's Choice Award and recognition as one of America's Best Doctors. The credentials are real, but the real test is whether you walk away with something specific to do this week. That is the bar I aim for every time.
The free scripts and videos remove the most common barriers Paramount parents face. No drive to a specialist office across the county. No trying to fit everything into a fifteen-minute well visit. No taking the whole afternoon off work. Just thirty focused minutes from your home, with a pediatrician who has the time and experience to listen.
Schools and neighborhoods we hear from
I have cared for kids attending Paramount Unified schools across the city, from Mokler Elementary and Wesley Gaines to Paramount Middle and Paramount High. The school setting matters less than the home setting, but knowing both helps the conversation move faster.

You are the expert on your child, even if you feel stuck right now. Bringing a few notes on their recent behavior is all it takes to get our session moving.
- A short description of the behavior or worry
- When it started and what changed around that time

Most Paramount families I help are not in crisis. They are parents who want a thoughtful answer from someone who has seen this before. That is exactly why the free Script Pack and the book exist.
