get to know me

I chose my specialty because...

I am able to treat patients hands-on and it is gratifying to see results very quickly. Also, I was heavily involved in sports as I grew up and now enjoy taking care of the next generation of young athletes.

I like working with kids because...

they are so fun! Kids are motivated to resume play and I love that I can help them return to their normal activities.

I chose to work at Dayton Children's because...

of the fantastic opportunity to practice my specialty in the area where I grew up.

Dayton Children's is special because...

of the collegial staff that is focused on providing the highest level of care in a comfortable environment.

Sarah Steward was very rude and unapologetic after she came in an hour after my daughter's appointment. Appointment at 315, we got there at 310. A nurse checked on us at 4. Sarah came in at 415, never apologized for being late, never apologized for keeping us waiting, but made the comment of, wake up. She told us to wake up, but never apologized for having us waiting that long.

My son had a femur fx r/t a football accident it was a very scary time for both my son and myself. Dr. Steward ensured comfort and took the time to explain his procedure and addressed all my concerns and feelings she did and excellent job to help my son feel comfortable and safe before he had to go back for surgery i am so greatful to have had her as my sons surgeon.
