Dr. Zeynep Ozdener

Q: What is your connection to our mission?

A: My aim is always to be a solid resource for patients and their families–whether their child is deemed to have autism or not. Many times the evaluation for autism is only the first step in a long journey to empower your child. It is an honor to be a small part of that first step.

Q: Why do you love helping children?

A: Every child is unique, precious, and innocent. Supporting their early development in any way I can fulfills my purpose as a pediatrician.

Q: What are your hobbies?

A: I like to spend my free time with loved ones, as well as learn new things, read, and write stories.

Q: What (or who) inspires you?

A: My religion and my family.

Q: Tell us about your family. Any children? What about pets?

A: I am lucky to have a loving and supportive family, and a wonderful (albeit sometimes sassy) family cat!
