Gastroenterology for Children!

Welcome to Palm Beach Digestive’s Pediatric Gastroenterology Care. Our practice focuses on nutrition and digestive health for children from the moment they’re born, until the time that they become adults. Kids deserve to lead happy, healthy lives and we are here to make sure they are able to do just that! Although we primarily focus on the digestive tract, we still take a full body approach to make sure we are not missing anything when it comes to our patients’ care. We will work together to come up with the best treatment plan tailored to your child’s specific needs. We strive to create a welcoming environment for all our patients and provide the best care possible for every single kid!

Our Pediatric Providers:

Dr. Sari Kay is originally from Minnesota but has traveled and lived all over since highschool. She attended medical school at the Sackler School of Medicine in Tel Aviv, Israel. From there, she moved to New York City for her pediatric residency at Jacobi Medical Center (Albert Einstein College of Medicine) in the Bronx, New York. She stayed on as chief resident and then completed her pediatric gastroenterology fellowship at the New York Presbyterian Weill-Cornell Medical center in New York City.

Dr. Kay was very excited to move down to south Florida to be near her husband’s family and the warm weather. She has been in practice in Florida for 5 years and loves it! Dr. Kay has two young daughters who keep her very busy and she enjoys spending time at the beach and traveling with her family.

Dr. Laura Irastorza is a South Florida native who is excited to be back serving her community. She attended medical school at Florida State University College of Medicine and then completed her pediatric residency at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital in Columbia, SC. She moved back to Florida to complete her pediatric gastroenterology fellowship at Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children.

Dr. Irastorza is a big Disney fan and loves spending time at the parks with her family and friends. Her and her husband enjoy traveling, taking long walks with their rescue golden retriever, and obsessing over the latest Star Wars or Marvel release on Disney plus.
