Madhavi L. Wijayaratne, MD
- Pediatrics
I am a female general pediatrician in primary care, with a special interest in Pediatric Nutrition and Autism. As it is best describes my goal is to get the message across the community about how important infant to young adult nutrition is from a grass root level. Healthy community with less medicine helping, counselling more instead of reacting to disease that could have been prevented. As an example, Childhood Obesity needs early intervention. I am a practicing True Buddhist from the far East, I treat my children with lots of loving kindness and compassion, including natural and alternative medicine for mild problems in children. I also teach my patients stress reducing techniques and anger management for teens and young adults.
