Biography : Dr. Blockson is originally from West Palm Beach, Florida. She completed her medical education at Howard University in Washington, DC.

In her own words, “Since I was a child, I felt that being a pediatrician was my calling. Children are so precious, and what greater joy is there than to make a child feel better? Being a pediatrician gives me a chance to impact the future by providing not only healthcare, but by also being a mentor, confidant, and friend. It is one of the few fields in medicine that provides interaction with the whole family, not just the patient. I look forward to being part of the transformation of a newborn into a young adult, helping to smooth out some of the bumps that might come along the way.”
