Q&A with Dr. Hamilton
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
Scooby-Doo & School House Rock; I grew up around dogs my entire life. I have 2 dogs now (Mydnite and Sophie). Saturday mornings with School House rock made my day. This is the main reason why I remember the Preamble to the Constitution. LOL.
What is your favorite children's book and why?
My mother said I read every book I touched. I did not have just one favorite book.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
Board Games like Connect 4, Monopoly, Perfection, and Operation were my favorite games as I loved to compete with my little sister. Playing with my Rubik's Cube was fun as I have always loved puzzles and challenging myself to beat my own time solving it.
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My Family is my inspiration. My parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, as well as other extended family, have always been very supportive of my goals in life.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
I love listening to music. Collecting vinyl records. Watching sports (Football/ Basketball/Tennis) and visiting my family in Tennessee.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
My own pediatrician Dr. Fred Seman. He was awesome and I was never afraid to go to the doctor. He was always so reassuring and caring during all of my visits as a child. He remained my pediatrician till the day I graduated from college. The continuity of care that I received during my time with Dr. Seman was inspirational and shaped my view of medicine.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
First and foremost, I love children. I love their innocence.
I love their honesty and frankness. A pediatrician must be thick skinned to work with kids because they have no qualms about telling you the truth. The ability to gain their trust is the greatest challenge but it is also the greatest reward. Patience is a must. If you establish trust with your young patients, it is not easily broken, and a bond is made forever. Parents will appreciate the care you provide also.
How do you accommodate patients with special needs?
Wheelchair accommodations to building and individual patient rooms
Visual/Audio Aids available

the front desk staff (wich is the best part of that location) called and got me sent over for this location.
My regular location was out of My Daughters vaccinations again. So thankfully the front desk staff (wich is the best part of that location ) called and got me sent over for this location! I have to say what a blessing ! Again the front desk staff is absolutely amazing Both Nyla and Lakhiya so helpful and knowledgeable. They helped me and made me feel like we mattered . They listened to my concerns ,they apologized even though it was not their fault we are super grateful. The back of house staff also did an amazing job Sasha done our Daughters shot she was quick and comforting. Thankyou Jacksonville pediatrics Dunn ave for doing a great job hiring the right people for these positions as they are very important for parents.

The Nurse Practitioner was very thorough, kind and gentle.
Every staff member was SO professional and kind from the moment we walked in. The MA was very kind and listened closely to why we were there while doing the necessary check in items. The Nurse Practitioner was very thorough, kind and gentle with our toddler. I would recommend anyone to bring their child to this office. We were so thankful they were able to see us!

They helped me with setting up the patient portal for my granddaughters.
Excellent customer service! They helped me with setting up the patient portal for my granddaughters. They also had so much patience with my granddaughters' fears during the exam. During the physicals, they spoke to the girls in such a way that they could understand. I'm very confident that my granddaughters will be well cared for!
