Philadelphia, PA – Shea A. Cronley, MD, is being
recognized by Continental Who’s Who as a Lifetime Achiever for the
accomplishments she has accrued as a Pediatrician with Advocare Society Hill
Pediatrics.
Founded by Dr. Cronley and associates in 1986, Advocare
Society Hill Pediatrics is a private practice made up of almost a dozen doctors
that specialize solely in child healthcare, treating patients from infancy to
their early twenties. Established on Pine Street, the practice expanded,
relocating to 834 Chestnut Street, Suite 306, in 2015. In their over 30 years of
practice, they have enjoyed treating whole families into their new generations.
For over thirty-five years, Dr. Cronley has provided
outstanding pediatric care. In addition to her work at Advocare Society Hill
Pediatrics, she maintains affiliations with Thomas
Jefferson University Hospitals where she additionally serves as an adjunct
instructor.
Dr. Cronley had known for as long as she could
remember that she wanted to study pediatric medicine, donning a nurse’s uniform
as a little girl to have fun dreaming about the life she would later live. One
of the most important lessons she has learned and would recommend to those
following along the same path is to truly listen, and to keep an open mind.
In preparation for her career, Dr. Cronley earned a
Bachelor’s of Science from Wittenberg University in 1977. She continued on to
receive her medical degree from Wright State University, graduating in 1982. She
completed her residency at Dayton Children’s Hospital in 1985, where shortly
after she completed a two-year Robert Wood Johnson Fellowship at the Children’s
Hospital of Philadelphia.
Advocating for a mother’s rights, Dr. Cronley has
been a member of the breastfeeding committee at Pennsylvania Hospital, a
recipient of “Baby Friendly” designation. She is a diplomat of the American
Academy of Pediatrics and a consulting physician for Germantown Friends School
in Philadelphia.
Dr. Cronley would like to dedicate this recognition
to her mentor Dr. Bidi McSorley and husband, Jeffrey Reed, who is a fine artist
that paints landscapes and teaches art. They share two grown sons.
