Alynna K. Schulert, MD

I practice general pediatrics and love taking care of children with complex medical needs. Working in pediatrics was my lifelong dream. I became a pediatrician because I wanted to take care of kids and their families and help them through life. One of the best parts of being a pediatrician is watching children grow into healthy adults.

The approach that I use when working with parents is very collaborative. I really love it when families come in and talk to me about their concerns, what they’re worried about and how I can help them.

I love caring for kids for so many reasons. The first one is seeing how children grow through time. Watching a baby become a five-year-old is a really fantastic experience. I also love watching parents gain confidence over time, remembering they didn’t know how to change a diaper just a few years before. I also love taking care of kids because they’re so adaptable. They can roll with the punches and make even challenging situations better.

When I’m not at work, I love spending time with my husband and three kids.
