Professional Statement
I am board-certified in adolescent medicine and sports medicine. As the Founding Chief of the Division of Adolescent Medicine and Sports Medicine at 草榴社区入口, my philosophy of combining the two subspecialties in one Division was to provide a framework for serving as broad a spectrum of adolescents and young adults (AYA) as possible. This framework addresses traditional health risk behaviors associated with the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in AYA, e.g. accidents, suicide, homicide and issues related to reproductive health and chronic illness, while promoting healthy lifestyles including sports participation, physical activity, and, therefore, blending exercise physiology and sports medicine with adolescent growth and development and social determinants of health. Addressing common conditions such as anxiety, obesity, eating disorders and chronic fatigue by incorporating healthy eating and physical activity when appropriate has characterized our Division鈥檚 approach to clinical care, research, teaching, public health, and advocacy for 38 years and makes us unique among adolescent medicine programs. As Program Director of the HRSA-Maternal and Child Health Bureau-funded Leadership Education in Adolescent Health Training Program training pre-and post-doctoral trainees/fellows in adolescent medicine, nursing, nutrition, psychology, public health and social work I am committed to interdisciplinary care and training the next generation of adolescent health leaders. I have been committed to the care of unhoused youth and young adults as the Medical Director of Covenant House Texas, a homeless, crisis shelter with an on-site medical clinic, since 1987. I saw the need to improve the transition from pediatric to adult-based care for AYA with special health care needs and I founded the Annual Baylor Health Care Transition Conference, which held its 25nd annual meeting in 2024 and, in addition to the live audience will broadcast to academic and community centers across the U.S. and Canada. I have led and collaborated on our Division鈥檚 research activities in health care transition (HCT) resulting in publishing a textbook and 13 peer-reviewed publications on HCT (out of more than 100 total peer reviewed publications) and presented 20 HCT abstracts at national meetings over the past 5 years.Websites
