Taylor Castellano, APRN

I loved the show Rugrats growing up as a child. I also enjoy watching movies with my boys. We really enjoy the new Lion King and we always get a good laugh at Finding Nemo.

As a child I always loved the story of Charlotte's Web. I felt this story taught the lesson of friendship, kindness and tolerance.

My favorite toy as a child were my baby dolls and doctors kit. My grandmother joked from an early age that I was going to end up working working in health care taking care of 'babies.'

My greatest inspirations are my parents. They both were successful entrepreneurs at a young age and instilled the value of hard work, honesty and dedication into my brother and I. They have continued to be such an important part of my life to do this day.

I enjoy spending time with my 3 boys who are very active in soccer. We also enjoy boating and fishing.

I practiced as a nurse in the Pediatric ICU at Arnold Palmer hospital. The experience at Arnold Palmer molded me into the provider I am today. The patients and families I cared for inspired me to want to work further my career into primary care. My goal is to help educate families and hopefully make a difference on preventable events that could lead to inpatient hospitalizations.

I truly enjoy caring for patients and their families. I spend a lot of time with my patients and their families and believe that education is very important in all stages of life. Our families feel very supported and welcome in our office.
