Patricia E. Manfredonia, MD, known to her patients as "Dr. Trish," received her undergraduate degree in the Biological Sciences from Rutgers University in New Brunswick. She went onto attend UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School and graduated with her medical doctorate in 2001. From there, she trained at New York University Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital to complete her pediatric residency in 2004. She then returned to New Jersey and became an associate in a group practice for eight years. In 2012, she decided to start her own solo practice, Healthy Pediatrics of Old Bridge, LLC, so that she could provide continuity of care to her patients and their families. She is board-certified in pediatrics and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. In addition to working at her private practice, she serves as school physician for two elementary schools.
Dr. Manfredonia was named an Honoree by Horizon New Jersey Health Insurance Company in 2006 for her dedication to treating underprivileged children in the state. In 2011, she was recognized as the Community Pediatrician of the Year by the pediatric residents at the K. Hovnanian Children's Hospital at Jersey Shore Medical Center. For four years (2015-2018), Dr. Trish was selected as one of "New Jersey's Favorite Kids' Docs" by the readers of New Jersey Family Magazine. Finally, since 2020, Dr. Trish is proud to serve as a Medical Advisor for the Liv Like a Unicorn Foundation, which is committed to raising awareness for pediatric cancer.
Personally, she is happily married to Emil, a doctor of physical therapy and owner of Home Sweet Home Therapy. She is also the proud mother of three boys, Jack, Luke and Frankie. While not in the office, Dr. Trish spends most of time with her loving family and their Golden Retriever Belle.
