Megan Mamaril, MSN, APRN, CPNP-PC/AC

I chose a career in medicine because I wanted to make a real difference in people's lives. I've always been fascinated by how the human body works and the power of healing. But what really drew me to pediatric care was my special connection with children.

Kids are amazing. Their innocence, strength, and happiness inspire me every day. Even when they're facing tough times, they still manage to find hope. It's a reminder of how much a caring provider can mean to a young person. Seeing them smile and get better is the best part of my job.

As a pediatric nurse practitioner, I love being part of a child's journey to getting better. Whether I'm helping with treatments, coordinating care, or giving advice to parents, I feel lucky to play a role in helping kids grow up healthy.

What I enjoy most about my job is building relationships with my patients and their families. It's incredibly rewarding to earn their trust and be there for them through good times and bad. When I see a child doing well under our care, it shows how working together with families really makes a difference.

Outside of work, I'm passionate about Pilates. It helps me feel refreshed and gives me the strength and flexibility I need.

Overall, my path to pediatric healthcare is guided by compassion, curiosity, and a dedication to helping others. It's a privilege to support children and their families, bringing health, happiness, and hope every step of the way.
