About Dr. Vrablik
Philosophy of care
I treat people the way I would want to be treated.
Why I entered medicine
I knew at a very early age that I wanted to be a doctor. My mom, who was a nurse, inspired me. I also had recurrent ear problems when I was a child and loved both my pediatrician, Dr. Ruboy, and my ear, nose and throat specialist, Dr. Partlow. They both were kind and treated me well, even when I needed surgery or had an emergency. It was these positive early experiences that interested me in a medical career. I became interested in occupational medicine in 1994 by chance -- I was a resident and I was asked to cover a vacation. I really enjoyed seeing employees and never looked back.
Community involvement
I am currently a volunteer Admissions Field Force Representative with the United States Military Academy at West Point. We support the Boy Scouts of America, the Leonard Pool Society, the United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley and our local church. I am also a member of the Allentown Health Bureau Board of Health, the University of Pennsylvania Occupational Medicine Residency Program and a member of the Pennsylvania Occupational and Environmental Medicine Society Board of Directors.
Personal interests
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three children. We like to travel, hike and camp. I also enjoy geocaching, home improvement and landscaping projects -- anything that gets me outdoors. Professionally, I have an interest in cervical spine injuries. I, myself, had a neck injury and a herniated cervical disc several years ago that required microdiscectomy surgery.
