In Practice
Dr. Katy has had a niche practice since her arrival to Lower Fairfield County in 2003. While she has held to a part-time working arrangement when her children were young, she has nonetheless been unwavering in her practice philosophy and commitment to her patients. She decided to start her own practice in 2015, believing it was just the right time to exercise her full professional potential. She is the founder and managing partner of Sound Beach Pediatrics.
