"I am excited to partner with Stony Brook Medicine in this endeavor to provide quality and easily accessible care in the community," Marquis added.

Marquis works with patients to “create health goals and participate in reaching those goals, giving them a unique experience of collaborative care close to home,” according to the news release.

Her focus includes childhood obesity, behavioral health and managing medically fragile children.
