"I was born and raised in Hampton Roads and moved away 40+ years ago after graduating from York High School. The opportunity to be a part of CHKD's mental health team was all it took to bring me home."

Bio
After a career of more than 30 years practicing law in London, Sydney, Hong Kong, and New York, Rob decided to change direction in life and returned to school to study nursing. Initially qualifying as an RN, he was drawn to the area of pediatric mental health and felt that's where he could make the
most difference.
Rob then went on to earn his master's degree in nursing, qualified as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, and joined CHKD. He has since earned his doctorate in nursing practice.
In addition to treating patients at CHKD’s Children’s Pavilion in Norfolk and at CHKD's Health Center at Tech Center in Newport News, Dr. Conway teaches nursing at a local community college.
