Doctor's visit

I went back to see Dr. Ramon Murphy last week at Uptown Pediatrics for my 1 month check up. He was the original doctor who saw me in the hospital and was referred to us by the obstetrician who delivered me, Dr. Gila Leiter. Mom and dad took me to a pediatrician in Yonkers for my post hospital check up and we didn't like the doctor at all. We think Dr. Murphy is just the best, nicest and most knowledgeable.  We also love his soothing voice. Anyhow, everything looks wonderful. I'm now 8 lbs. 14 ounces and 21 inches in length (which Dr. Murphy said was tall!). No immunizations until next visit. Yippee!

A little about Dr. Murphy from the Uptown Pediatrics Website www.uptownpediatrics.com:

He is currently a clinical professor of pediatrics and of community medicine at Mount Sinai, where he serves on numerous committees. Dr. Murphy is particularly interested in adolescent medicine and delivery of care to under served communities.
