Veronica is active on the PTA at Westchester Elementary and CS Charter, as well as room mom. She spends most of her time raising the three active children and driving them to and from all their activities.

Alan adds,“It’s wonderful being a pediatrician in this community while also living here. I am fortunate to see my patients grow up and be a part of their lives, not just in the office, but at the sports fields, schools, and church.”
