Dr. Charone Tolbert, MD

As a pediatrician, I love that I have the unique opportunity to see my patients grow from infants to adults. I am proud that I have the ability to give advice to patients and families on a variety of topics- from medical conditions to booster seats to eating well. As a parent myself, I feel that I am better able to advise my families on what I would do in certain situations and even give examples of my own. I think that building a solid foundation of trust with the family is the best way to be a great pediatrician.

As medicine continues to change every day, so should our approach as physicians. One on the most important aspects of a healthy doctor-patient relationship is to keep the lines of communication open. Discussing all available options and answering the family’s questions are paramount to establishing and maintaining trust.

I feel privileged that families entrust me with the care of their children and I hope that the recommendations I give now will have a lasting beneficial …impact on my patients and their families in the future.
