Our Office

Our office is designed to be welcoming to all ages of children and adolescents. The office was carefully designed to be safe, clean, warm and reassuring. Some of the same choices that make the office comfortable also help minimize the environmental impact of the practice. Green building and cleaning materials keep the office clean and healthy while minimizing indoor pollutants and the use of fossil fuels or products with potentially harmful side effects, such as bacterial resistance and triggering asthma and allergies. I use less paper by communicating and filling out forms electronically. I have washable towels, gowns and blankets instead of paper or plastic. I have carefully chosen medical supplies, procedures and equipment that can be sterilized, and in some cases eliminated, to minimize medical waste. In addition to the responsibility to be good environmental stewards for our children these measures help make the office less scary and more cost efficient. We also decrease our already small footprint by washing toys & cups, lending books & DVDs and not having a TV.
