Dr. Paula Tamashiro, MD

Pediatrician
2100 Webster St, Ste 110, San Francisco, CA
Helping my grandfather with his medications and appointments when I was young sparked my interest in medicine. After graduating from Universidad de San Martin de Porres Facultad de Medicina Humana, I completed my residency at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Following medical school, I spent time working with underprivileged children, which solidified my passion for pediatrics and infectious diseases. I love working with patients of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. Each phase offers new joys and challenges. I also enjoy watching parents grow alongside their children; it's rewarding to see how their parenting skills evolve over time. I treat families the way I would want to be treated-I respect their time and focus on listening carefully to their concerns. Respecting the diverse cultures in our community is very important to me. I'm open to different ideas and believe there is no single right way to parent.
