Q&A with Dr. Alyssa Franzblau
How did you get into pediatrics?
My whole life, I’ve always had younger children around to care for. I had a sibling with medical issues that inspired me to pursue medicine. However, I didn’t go into medical school thinking I would be a pediatrician. Once I did my rotation in pediatrics I fell in love with the fun and challenge of caring for children and their families from all walks of life.
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Rockland County, NY.
Where do you live?
I live in NYC.
What do you enjoy most about working in your neighborhood office?
Hastings and the surrounding towns are really nice communities. I enjoy walking into the small town, how close knit the communities are, and waving to families as they walk to school.
What keeps you motivated?
The opportunity to provide the best care for all of my families, no matter who they are and where they come from is one of my biggest motivators. I love being a pediatrician and seeing my patients grow into healthy adults!
What do you do for fun?
I love to knit and create beautiful things.
