Yasir Al-Qaqaa, M.D.

For Dr. Yasir Al-Qaqaa, the best part of caring for children is seeing the smile on their face when they start feeling better. That joy has guided his career from the beginning, and it shows in the way he approaches every patient, whether a newborn at their very first visit or a teenager navigating a new diagnosis.

Dr. Al-Qaqaa is board-certified in both general pediatrics and pediatric critical care, bringing advanced clinical expertise to his everyday practice. Trained at St. Joseph's Children's Hospital in Paterson, NJ, and Cohen Children's Medical Center in New Hyde Park, NY, he developed a foundation in complex, high-acuity pediatric care that gives families added confidence in his ability to recognize and respond to a wide range of health concerns.

His care style is family-centered, collaborative, and preventive. He believes in treating the whole family and keeping communication clear and open so that parents feel informed and supported at every step. First-time parents, in particular, find his calm and thorough approach reassuring during those early months of newborn care.

Dr. Al-qaqaa is also passionate about language and connection. Fluent in Arabic, he can offer a comfortable, familiar experience to Arabic-speaking families in the community.
