Neha Batra is a board certified pediatrician with Goshen Physicians Pediatrics. She provides preventative and routine well-child care for children of all ages, including sports physicals and care coordination with specialists. In addition, she treats acute and chronic illnesses such as asthma, allergies and attention deficit syndromes.
Dr. Batra is a strong advocate of breastfeeding, as she believes this gives babies a healthy start in life. Her involvement with the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative ensures parents have the resources they need to make informed choices about how they feed and care for their babies.
Philosophy of Care
Central to Dr. Batra’s approach to care is the importance of providing a medical home for families. She creates a patient-centered environment focused on healthy lifestyles and total wellness. By building long-term relationships with her young patients and their families, she is able to care for a child’s emotional and intellectual development.
Regular check-ups give Dr. Batra opportunities to offer more than immunizations. She takes time to screen her young patients for issues with growth or development and answer parents’ questions or concerns.
