For Patients:
In my role as medical director in the primary care clinic, I have been involved many teaching initiatives for our large teaching clinic and projects that have resulted in publications. I have co-led the fully integrated mental health and behavior program for over 10 years. In terms of quality improvement research with screening for asthma, well child care adherence, pregnancy-related depression, developmental delay, psychosocial/social determinants of health as well Second-Hand Smoke (SHS). I am also the director of the Breastfeeding Curriculum for our Pediatric residents and a breastfeeding elective for medical students. I have published on breastfeeding support in Latinx and recently completed a randomized trial of a bilingual (Spanish) texting and breastfeeding support app Mother's Milk Messaging. I am one of the editors of the Current Diagnosis and Therapeutics in Pediatrics 25th Edition textbook. I have received excellent feedback on my book, Breastfeeding Telephone Triage and Advice published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (soon in 4th edition) as a helpful resource for physician practices and anyone providing advice for breastfeeding.
