Stephanie was the gift my family needed before we knew what we needed. I found that having a foster daughter meant that I was constantly navigating the unknown and my kiddo needed a provider that understood not only the medical side of things but was proficient in the specific physical, emotional and social needs of children navigating trauma and foster care. We were lucky to have been assigned Stephanie at the foster care clinic. She attended to my daughter as a whole child, always taking my concerns seriously and providing me with the education I needed. Her appointments were never rushed, I never felt my daughter’s specific needs being dismissed. Stephanie knew when something serious needed more attention. I wish a provider like Stephanie for all families navigating difficult circumstances, trauma, foster care and adoption.
