Hi! My name is Bophany Chea. I am a general pediatrician. I attended George Washington University for undergraduate and medical school. I completed my pediatric training at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center in New Jersey and University of Maryland in Baltimore, Maryland.
My husband and I are the parents of two wonderful, energetic, sassy, and at times challenging, young girls, “M” who is now 8 and “E” who is now 5 years old. We also recently had a baby boy “B”! We also have a Rhodesian Ridgeback, so our house is quite the zoo. I realized how much everything changed – including my views as a pediatrician – after I had my children. This blog is about my journey as a mother who just happens to be a pediatrician.
As a mother, I am frequently being tested. I hope to share my adventures in motherhood and show that, even though I’m a pediatrician, once you become a parent, everything goes out the window.
Feel free to follow me on Instagram and Twitter @medicalmommymd as I navigate the trials of parenthood (and of social media).
