Q&A with Dr. Assi
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
The Emperor's New Groove
What is your favorite children's book and why?
The Giving Tree is my favorite because it is shows selfless love.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
Glow Worm, My Little Pony, Skip-it
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My husband and daughter, for being my constants, and inspiring me to be the best wife, mother, and pediatrician I can be.
My parents, for everything they have sacrificed to give me every opportunity for a fulfilling and beautiful life, and raising me with God always at the center of it all.
My best friends, for always lending a listening ear and supporting me through ups and downs.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Family time, concerts, music, movies, Harry Potter and Disney
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
My father is a pediatrician, which inspired me to become a pediatrician.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
As of now, I am the sole provider at our PA location, and that means our patients see me 100% of the time (except for a few vacation days here and there =)
I give every patient and their family 100% of my time and ability, and treat them as if they are family.
We have generations of patients in this practice, from when my father first started working in Jacksonville, and now I see their kids, grandkids...It's a wonderful feeling to be able to watch our patients grow into adulthood, and I have had several come back to visit, even after they have 'graduated' from pediatric medicine.

MUCH better, safer, cleaner than the old location.
This location is MUCH better, safer, cleaner than the old location. Many parents are frustrated with the new scheduling system it's much less personal and some agents in the call center have no clue! However, when you finally get an appointment and speak with the staff and Doctor's it feels like home❣️
