I chose my specialty in order to be able to care for children while they are sick, but also to prevent illness through education. Being a mother of two children myself has made me a better pediatrician. I believe in a partnership between myself, the parents and the child. In this partnership, I emphasize the importance of regular well-child checkups during which we all can talk about nutrition, immunizations, development, safety and other preventive issues that are important to overall good health. I try to be approachable, so that my patients and their parents feel comfortable asking questions. Through UC Davis, I can offer my patients personal and quality local everyday care, in addition to referral to top specialists for more complicated cases. Clinical Interests Dr. Ahrons enjoys caring for children when they are sick, but strives to prevent illness through patient education. She emphasizes the importance of regular well-child checkups to discuss nutrition, child development, safety and preventive health issues. Dr. Ahrons believes in creating a health partnership with both children and their parents. She enjoys establishing long-term relationships with her patients and their families and is thrilled that she now cares for the children of former patients.

J*., Nohegar, A. and Bouzari, S. Graduate Faculty of Environment, University of Tehran, Tehran, Iran Received: 18.08.2017 Accepted: 31.01.2018 ABSTRACT: As the largest service industry in the world, tourism plays a special role in sustainable development. Geomorphic tourism is known to be a segment of this industry with lower environmental impact and underlying causes that explain lower demand; therefore, it is essential to study, identify, assess, plan, and manage natural tourist attractions. As such, the present study assesses the ability of geomorphological landforms of Haraz watershed, one of the major tourism areas of Iran. In this regard, the features of geomorphologic landforms, including Mount Damavand, the Damavand Icefall, Shahandasht Waterfall, Larijan Spa, and Deryouk Rock Waterfall in different parts of the Haraz watershed have been compared from the standpoint of geotourism features. To assess these landforms, geological maps, topographic and aerial photos, satellite imagery, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and data field have been used as research tools. Evaluation results demonstrate that the average of scientific values in these landforms’ catchment (with 0.76 points) has been greater than the average of other values. These high ratings show the landforms’ potentials to be informative to those examining them for the purpose of education as well as tourist attraction.
