About Brittany Sakhno, MD

Personal Statement

It is a privilege to work with children from the newborn period through late adolescence. As a former third grade school teacher and now pediatrician, I recognize the importance of teamwork to empower children and their families with the tools needed for healthy growth and development. Parents know their children best, and I value collaborative care that is built on trust, compassion, and a thoughtful individualized approach.
