St. Luke's Center
I use my time with parents to not only evaluate the health of their baby, but to also discuss, communicate and remind them of some very important developmental best-practices.
I recently joined ABW St. Luke's Pediatrics in Bath after working in private practice in Monroe County for nearly 18 years. After attending medical school in India, I completed a residency in pediatrics at Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center in New York.
I am a certified lactation consultant and often discusses the health benefits of breastfeeding with parents. In addition to being a strong advocate for breastfeeding, I emphasize the 5 Rs of early education identified by the American Academy of Pediatrics. The “Rs” stand for reading together (every day, even if only for a few minutes,); rhyming (playing, cuddling); routine (in terms of sleeping and eating schedules); rewards (positive reinforcement for things like helping and cleaning up); and relationships (any behaviors that build and strengthens that bond between parent and child.) The 5 Rs contribute toward establishing a healthy foundation for learning and raising a happy child with high self-esteem.
Dr. Kadewari is married with two children.
The Patient Satisfaction Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions from our nationally recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.
Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not necessarily reflect the views of St. Luke’s University Health Network.
