Dr. N. Bande Virgil

The Mommy Doc

What is it that fuels each and every one of us in this world?

For me, it is my passion for my family, and my children. It is also the practice of pediatric medicine and empowering parents raising kids in the new millenium. I am a board certified pediatrician who has practiced in the emergency room, private practice, and hospital. I pride myself in giving practical advice to parents, helping them sift through the information overload that is the world of pediatrics today. Most importantly sharing our common humanity--it's not easy being a parent.  I am passionate about ending "mommy shaming", and "mommy wars". The judgement that affects the self esteem of mothers as they walk the journey of parenting based on individual choices and values has become even more common in the social media era.  As a writer, speaker and physician I am passionate about helping parents find balance, bridging the communication gap between physicians and their patients, and helping us all live our healthiest lives.
