Q&A with Dr. Peshimam
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
My favorite animated characters are Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse.
What is your favorite children's book?
My favorite books include the Famous Five series by Enid Blyton and comics.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
My favorite childhood toy was Barbie dolls.
Who is your greatest inspiration?
Mother Teresa, for her profound care and immense love for children, irrespective of their faith and status. She spent her life rescuing abandoned infants found in bins and providing them with shelter, food, medical care, education, and a loving environment.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Painting, spending time with family, and travelling.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
Too many wrong resources are available via social media and I believe a pediatrician can play a very important role in a child's well being by providing the right knowledge to the parent. I enjoy collaborating with parents and offering guidance on their children’s health, growth and development.
