Approach to care

Dr. Kathrin R. Sidell thanks you for considering her as your pediatrician. She considers it a privilege to care for your child and enjoys helping parents navigate both the joys and the challenges of raising a happy, healthy child. To. Dr. Sidell, the best doctor-patient relationship is a partnership built on open communication in both directions. She loves teaching and also learning from her patients and their families. Her goal is to help families navigate the abundance of healthcare information available and provide the facts needed to make informed decisions for their child. Dr. Sidell is a strong believer in preventive care, including a healthy lifestyle and following the recommended immunization schedule to protect children against serious, preventable diseases. When illness does occur, she works closely with families to determine the best diagnostic approach or treatment plan to help their child recover. She considers it her job to be your child's advocate and looks forward to meeting you.

I support the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) and the California Dept of Public Health's (CDPH) guidelines and schedules on vaccinations to protect your child's and the community's health.

Outside of medicine

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Sidell enjoys running, biking, and generally being outdoors with her family and her dogs. Her young son also keeps her very busy.
