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.

Dr. Steward is knowledgeable, but could also work on bedside manner a little. She's nice but very dry and not super understanding of an athlete and wants him to be very limited when the other Dr we saw said otherwise

She made us feel uncomfortable and made me feel like we was not wanted in the place

04/14/25

Very well mannered and very polite and loving and caring.

I was very pleased with the time in which we were seen and the amount of time that the provider spent with us all around. I would definitely suggest this doctor and team.
