Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends individuals be under pediatric care up to the age of 21. Pediatricians provide medical care to people ranging in age from newborns to young adults. They are trained to examine, diagnose, and treat children with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses through all of their developmental stages, as they grow and mature.

In her free time, Dr. Stickle enjoys running, swimming, traveling, and anything Disney. She spends time with her three young children and her physician husband, Robert Stickle, a radiologist and mammographer at Jupiter Medical Center. She is bilingual in English and Cantonese (Chinese).
