About
Bisma Arbab, MD, FAAP
-
Dr. Arbab grew up in Islamabad, Pakistan, before coming to the U.S. to complete her medical training. In her free time, she is mostly “putting on my mom hat and assisting my kids with their work,” and video chatting with family abroad alongside a cup of tea. She also enjoys listening/reading poetry and exploring new places. Among her favorite local areas is Old Settlers Park.
My practice revolves around persistent learning, honest communication, and holistic care. To me nothing matches the joy of seeing a child get better and smile again.
