She treats a wide array of physical and mental health conditions in children from birth through adolescence and young adulthood.

Dr. Holt’s clinical work ranges from routine well-child checkups to diagnosis and treatment of both common and chronic illnesses, injuries and diseases in children through each stage of development.

I’ve always enjoyed working with kids. I love seeing them grow from infancy into their teen years and young adulthood.
