Diana

Dr. D moved up to Philadelphia, PA to start her 3-year Pediatric Neurology Fellowship on July 1, 2011. She became an
official Pediatrician in June, 2011 when she completed her 3 years of residency at Pitt County Memorial Hospital in eastern North Carolina.
From mid-Feb. to mid-Mar. 2011 Diana worked in Zambia with several colleagues in an informal "doctors without borders" effort through a
Presbyterian Mission north of Livingstone. Well before that, it was clear that Diana inherited our wanderlust. Prior to NC, after growing up in
Calif. she moved to Lewisburg, PA for college then spent about 3 years in Boston and 2 years in Manhattan. She has lived internationally
in Dominica (Caribbean Island), Spain, Bolivia, and Chile and has traveled all over Europe, South America and eastern and southern Africa.

Diana remained exhausted much of her life as a Pediatric Resident through June 2011. But when she's awake, she playing with her puppy (Koty) and kitty (Mimi).


Though she's 27 (Above), Diana's giraffe story goes back to when she was about 8 years old, standing in NYC's famous F.A.O. Schwartz toy store but leads to her graduation in June 2007 from medical school. Visit *DOCTOR DIANA'S* graduation at Lincoln Center and her celebrations afterward.
