<p>Pediatric emergency medicine</p>
<p>Dr. Maisonet was drawn to pediatric emergency medicine during medical school, when through a National Health Service Corps Scholarship, she worked in an inner-city clinic in Philadelphia. There, she saw how crack cocaine devastated families and neighborhoods. She knew then that she wanted to care for patients in the inner city, a desire that led her to become a pediatrician at Montefiore Medical Center.</p><p>At Montefiore, Dr. Maisonet was one of the first recipients of the Faculty Development Scholarship and was able to study and obtain a master of science degree in the Clinical Research Training Program. This program has given her the tools to practice clinical medicine in the Emergency Department with a research approach.</p>
