Biography

I love working with children because I know what an impact I can have in the life of these young lives. Being able to comfort children and their families in a time of need is a very special mission.

Claudia Farrell, MD, completed her medical degree and pediatric residency program in Lisboa Codex, Portugal, at Faculdade De Ciencias Medicas. She is board certified and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Originally from Portugal, Dr. Farrell moved to the United States in 2010 after completing her education and training. She’s known since the age of 6 she wanted to be a “baby doctor,” and still to this day, she believes it is a dream come true to care for the youth in our community. Dr. Farrell speaks fluently in Portuguese and Spanish.
