Her husband, John, owns a small business. They have 3 children, Matthew, Maggie and Annie who have been her best teachers and provided years of laughter and stories. Dr. DiRenzo-Coffey enjoys travel, hiking, gardening, woodwork, cooking, canning and cheering for her IRISH. Dr. DiRenzo-Coffey loves seeing the children in her practice grow up and making going to the doctor fun and not scary. She is very interested in early brain development and has worked with the American Academy of Pediatrics to educate politicians and business leaders in Nebraska about the importance of supporting young families. She is excited to start her journey with Village Pointe Pediatrics. |
