Vinitha M Moopen, MD, FAAP in Lititz, Pennsylvania

Description

Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare: I have always wanted to be a pediatrician. For years when I was growing up in Florida, I used to volunteer on the pediatrics floor of our local hospital on the weekends and over the summer. I would spend my days playing with the babies, reading to the children or playing games. When I went to medical school, my interests were cemented during my pediatric rotations. What I want my patients to know about me: I believe that being a pediatrician is the best job in the world. Watching my patients grow up into responsible teens and productive members of society is truly remarkable. I practice evidence-based medicine and follow guidelines put forth by the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
