As a parent we are always worried about the happiness and safety of our children. One thing some of us may take for granted is the health of our children when they don’t have allergies. Food allergies change the way a family dines at restaurants, prepares food at home, and engages in social activities. Dr. Choi shares her experience being both a doctor and a mother to a food allergy warrior.
Dr. Betty Choi is a board certified pediatrician, author and education advocate. Dr. Choi has worked at both Boston Children's Hospital and UCLA Medical Center. In addition to her clinical experience, she has devoted her career to creating educational resources for health care professionals, families and schools. Her mission is to make education accessible and relatable, especially for children. Dr. Choi has created a children's book, Human Body Learning Lab, which will be released by story publishing in November 2022.
