Dr. Adu earned her Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology from Long Island University, graduating with Magna Cum Laude distinction, and then went on to earn her Osteopathic Medical Degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-School of Osteopathic Medicine. She then completed her Residency in Pediatrics at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta GA, and served as a Co-Chief Resident while there.

Dr. Adu has been serving parents, infants, children, and young adults for several years, and has a passion for preventive medicine, as prevention of illness is our nation's best cure.
