A Fond Farewell
After 29 years at Park Ridge Pediatrics, Dr. Lisa Villanueva will be retiring from practice this November.
We are incredibly grateful for the care and dedication she has shown to her patients and their families over the years. It has been especially meaningful to see many of her patients return as parents, bringing their own children to her for care.
Please join us in thanking Dr. Villanueva for 29 wonderful years and wishing her a happy, healthy, and well-deserved retirement surrounded by family and friends.
& A Warm Welcome
We are so thrilled to welcome Dr. Aashka Patel to the Park Ridge Pediatrics family!
Dr. Patel joins us after practicing pediatrics for over four years at a busy downtown clinic. She completed her pediatric residency at Rush University, earned her medical degree at Midwestern University, and completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (I-L-L–I-N-I!).
As a new Park Ridge local and mom of two, Dr. Patel is especially excited to serve the community where she and her family now call home. For her, great pediatric care begins with listening and taking the time to build genuine, lasting trust with families.
Dr. Patel will begin seeing patients this November-join us in giving her a warm Park Ridge welcome!
