- Pottstown Memorial Medical Center

Pediatrici­an Sheila Aseto-Rhoden, DO, MS, has joined Conventry Pediatrics in Pottstown. Dr. AsetoRhode­n recently completed a pediatric internship and residency at Children’s Hospital at Lehigh Valley Hospital in Allentown. She received her medical degree from the Philadelph­ia College of Osteopathi­c Medicine in 2013.

Dr. Aseto-Rhoden says that her goal in treating patients is to “care for every child as if he or she were her own child.”

“I chose to specialize in pediatrics because I have a huge heart for children,” she said. “They are a unique population, often unable to advocate for themselves, and as a physician, I feel that being a child advocate is an important part of my job.”

One of Dr. Aseto-Rhoden’s special interests is caring for patients with asthma.

The philosophy of care at Conventry Pediatrics is to create a foundation of lifelong good health. They are located at 800 Heritage Drive in Pottstown. Physicians are accepting new patients. For more informatio­n or to schedule an appointmen­t, call 610-3268660.

Conventry Pediatrics is a Pottstown Family Care Center. For more than 30 years, Pottstown Family Care Centers have been serving the primary care needs of people who live in Berks, western Montgomery and northern Chester County areas. They are located in six offices throughout the tricounty area.
