About me

Dr. Block believes in providing excellent pediatric medical care while honoring and respecting the child and his or her family. He enjoys assisting parents in their role of supporting children to reach their potential.

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.

Personal interests

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Block enjoys spending time with his family, running, watching movies and relaxing with a good book.
