\n<\/strong><\/span>Practice Administrator<\/strong>
\n<\/strong>Karen has been with the practice since our inception in 2009. A special needs parent herself, she provides instructions for medication, follow-up appointments, educational concerns and directs many of our patients to appropriate ancillary services. Feel free to call and speak with Karen to discover a practice concerned with exhibiting kindness and friendship within such a complicated condition.
\nIn addition, Karen has instituted an in-house mentoring program for challenged students who are graduating out of the school system.
\nOne of our parents summed it up best when she wrote:<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0\u201cThank you so much for your kind acts and thoughtfulness. The dedication you have for your patients is exceptional and greatly appreciated as well.\u201d<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]

\n<\/strong><\/span>Assistant Practice Manager<\/strong>
\nBeing fluent in both English and Spanish, Ashly plays a huge role in communicating and translating for our South American and primarily Spanish speaking families. She has quickly become our point of contact with many US and International patients from Romania, India, Jamaica, and more. Along with helping the many families who find their way to our office, Ashly was able to help her own family with the information learned from working at our Center, and along with the rest of the team, helps to guide other parents and their children through journeys of their own.[\/vc_column_text]

\nPatient Care Coordinator<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nAt first, a volunteer Intern and now as a student aspiring to become an Applied Behavioral Analysist, Leilani’s passion for the well being of the patients has earned her permanent status on our team. She has taken on the role as the lead contact in new protocols and works closely with Dr. Udell and the families participating in them. Having a family member on the spectrum, Leilani makes a genuine effort to be interested in all children and is constantly finding new ways to communicate with them through questions, play, non-verbal cues, and sign language when needed. Her ability to connect has helped conduct more thorough evaluations and has given parents and the patients a sense of comfort.[\/vc_column_text]

Lisa finds joy in being able to be someone who resonates with the hardships and blessings that our parents go through.
