About Theresa Scott, D.O.
I am proud to be part of a team that is committed to delivering the best care to children in our community. As a pediatric hospitalist, I believe that prompt, clear communication with patients and families is essential to providing high quality care. I strive to build a strong partnership with my patients and families by listening to and addressing their concerns throughout their hospital stay.
As an educator, I focus on medical education research that improves outcomes for hospitalized children by studying how we assess the next generation of pediatricians.
