Originally from Chicago, Dr. Traci Toll-Griffin, said she always knew she wanted to be a Pediatrician. Now practicing in MKMG’s Brewster office, Dr. Toll is eager to treat families in the area, watch her patients grow, and develop lasting relationships in her new community.
“I’m excited about my practice here, and am proud to be a part of such a renowned medical group,” she said. “I look forward to caring for children and their families over the long-term.”
Dr. Toll received her medical degree from Mount Sinai School of Medicine in 1998. While studying, she was involved in a variety of interesting health and research-related programs, including the Urban Health Initiative Project. There she administered developmental screening exams to homeless pre-schoolers, in order to identify developmentally delayed children for early intervention and education.
Dr. Toll also organized an annual health fair for more than 300 homeless women and children at the American Red Cross Emergency Family Center in New York City. In 1996, she spent a month at the Indian Health Service in Anchorage, Alaska, researching risk factors for traum-atic injuries and fatal accidents in Native American families.
After graduating from medical school she completed a residency and internship in Pediatrics at Mount Sinai. She moved to Westchester in 2001and accepted an offer to join MKMG’s Brewster office.
When treating her patients, Dr. Toll focuses on the importance of preventive medicine and works with a patient’s entire family to help them practice and foster healthy lifestyles during the developmental years.
“It’s important to instill healthy habits early on, so they become a way of life as children grow into adulthood,” she said.
Dr. Toll treats boys and girls up to age 17 and is currently accepting new patients. To schedule an appointment with her, call MKMG’s Brewster Pediatrics office at 845-278-6641. |
