Personal Interests
Dr. Lai is originally from New York, but considers the Bay Area her new home ever since she went to college at Stanford University. She enjoys playing tennis, Zumba, traveling, and trying new foods from around the world.
Philosophy of Care
I believe that the pediatrician is the foundation of a child’s medical home. More than just caring for children, pediatrics also means caring for the whole family. It is a place where children and their parents come to have their concerns addressed and questions answered. I emphasize preventative care medicine, discussing common issues and questions before they become a problem. I also use the latest evidence-based medicine to guide my clinical practice. Each child is unique and I tailor my practice to meet each family’s distinct needs.
