Q&A with Dr. Tucker
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
I love the movie Lady and the Tramp, so much so that my first dog was a cocker spaniel named "Lady"
What is your favorite children's book and why?
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle. I first read this book in 4th grade, and it introduced me to the world of science fiction. This book instilled a love of reading and I still read almost every day.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
Legos
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My uncle was a pediatric allergist and was one of my greatest inspirations. He was one of the reasons I wanted to become a pediatrician growing up.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Photography, playing piano, running, and reading.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
I always loved children growing up and from an early age I always wanted to be a pediatrician.

A great doctors office with very nice staff. All the doctors are AMAZING but I want to give Dr. Saunders a special shout out, she is extremely informative, explains in detail and truly shows how much she cares about her patients. Best doctor at that office!!
