Philosophy of Care

Having epilepsy can be a burden far beyond the seizures themselves, and I strive to support and advocate for my patients along their medical journeys. I aim to build strong partnerships with my patients’ families by truly listening to their concerns and ensuring a good understanding of treatment plans throughout our discussions. I feel privileged that families put their trust in me and I work hard to help my patients achieve their greatest potential.

I feel that Dr. Penn is highly intelligent, very professional, and listens very intently. And also, I think that she takes my daughter's case seriously and with the most consideration.

She is great, informative, and passionate doctor. We love her. Thank you.

Dr. Penn was very informative with my daughter who was very nervous and scared. So we are very happy with our visit with her and would love to see her again in the future.

I really liked the doctor's kindness. She treated us very nicely and kindly.

Great jobs thanks again
