Q&A with Dr. Harley
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
Moana and Encanto are my favorites. I think I’m more excited to see Moana 2 than my daughter is.
What is your favorite children's book and why?
Any of the stories from the “Amelia Bedelia” collection.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
Barbies
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My Mother
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Playing tennis and spending time with my family.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
My brother inspired me to become a doctor/pediatrician. He was born with cerebral palsy and I’ve always wanted to understand more about his diagnosis.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
I think I do a good job of actually listening to my patients and their parents. I feel very strongly about shared decision making between myself and the family and I never want a parent to feel like they are being told what to do. I would prefer our visits to be more of a discussion where the main focus is whatever is best for the child.
How do you accommodate patients with special needs?
I let the patient tell me or show me what they’re comfortable with. I let them hold and play with the tools we use so that they aren’t afraid and so that they have a sense of control during the visit. We also give out lots of stickers if necessary. :-)

we have never had a bad experience there.
Love this place. Been going here a long time. My little one is 15. Her big sister is 30. Dr Morgan was our first Dr. there. We have had a few over the years. We have never had a bad experience there. Always wonderful, the entire staff is great. Dr Carlos Cano Is our current primary. He was really good with my girl. Shes on the spectrum and gets very nervous. Would and have recommended to anyone looking for a Pediatrician.

Dr. Harley is our first choice.
Both of my kids have come to this office since birth & we have been satisfied with the care given by the providers. Dr. Harley is our first choice but every provider is professional and knowledgeable, plus GREAT with my kids. The only issue I have at times is the amount of time from walk-in to leaving that our appointment takes.

to find some were safe for their babies to be seen to be heard to be cared for.
I have been coming to Suncoast pediatrics for 23 years. I started with Dr. Canno for my first baby and have continued to go with all five of my children. We now see Dr. Harley with whom there will never be enough words to express how amazing a Doctor she is. She takes to in and makes you feel like family. One of my " kido's " went through a very ruff patch and she was constantly checking in on her progress back to health through her stay at the hospital. She goes beyond the call of Doctor to make sure each and every child has what they need to be health and successful. " she hands out school supplies " for kids heading back to school.. she listened to every every concern, fear or triumph, your child has. We are getting ready to enter our third generation of children attending this pediatric as my daughter just pointed out.I promise you will not be disappointed in this pediatric, it's a great choice for new parents trying to find. Some were safe for their babies to be seen to be heard to be cared for..

support for my children and me.
Suncoast Pediatrics has been a cornerstone of support for my children and me since we moved to Florida after my husband’s final overseas tour. The doctors and team members have become like family, standing by us as we laid our Marine to rest and continuing to support us every step of the way. From mental health resources to surgeries, and even sharing the joy of Nikko’s birth, they’ve been there for it all. As a Marine Corps family, we are forever grateful for the compassionate care and dedication of the professionals at Suncoast Pediatrics. #SemperFi
