About
Philosophy of care
In my practice of neuropsychology, I strive to understand a child's neurocognitive strengths and weaknesses and how this unique profile gives raise to problems seen in school, home or relating to peers. Additionally, I believe in integrated care and the need to collaborate with other doctors and teachers to develop the best treatment, including an academic plan for a child.
Why I entered medicine
I was inspired to study medicine by my parents, both physicians. Growing up I saw them working hard to help their patients and community. After completion of my medical studies, I had met Dr. Erin Bigler, a neuropsychologist who got me excited in that discipline and the brain-behavior relationship.
Personal interests
I live with my husband and son and enjoy traveling and learning about art and culture.

Comments
"Dr. Moci treated my daughter with the utmost respect, kindness, and compassion. Believe me, that speaks so much as a healthcare provider. I appreciate the time and effort taken during this all day appointment. I also appreciate greatly with how Dr. Moci answered any input/concerns/questions I had as a parent, with the same kindness, compassion, and respect she had shown my daughter."
"Dr. Moci is very polite and soft spoken she made my daughter feel secure and accepted. This visit has been the first visit in ages that I was able to discuss issues with provider where my child was comfortable enough to sit alone and draw!"
"I was told by Dr I can submit further information or questions through the portal, but she is not listed in my son's portal."
