She then underwent dedicated pediatric otolaryngology subspecialty training at Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, D.C.
As a former student of anthropology, Dr. Weinstein has extensively researched the cultural factors affecting successful implementation of public health policy. She has examined and advocated for community-based approaches to health education, with particular emphasis on HPV vaccination and cancer screening.
