Madison Wepking, PA-C

As a pediatric emergency medicine provider, I am dedicated to helping children and their families feel supported, informed, and confident during what can be a stressful time. My path to medicine began at Cincinnati Children’s, where I was a patient for several years managing a chronic health condition. The compassionate care I received there inspired me to pursue a career focused on restoring quality of life and empowering patients and families. From middle school on, I knew I wanted to become a provider, driven by a passion for education and advocacy.

I value shared decision-making and strive to involve families in every step of their child’s care. Patient education is central to my practice; I want families to leave the emergency department with their questions answered and a clear understanding of their child’s condition and care plan, so they feel prepared to continue care at home.

Working with children has always felt like a calling. Through roles as a babysitter, Bible school leader, coach, and preschool teacher, I’ve found joy in supporting kids as they learn and grow. Children are remarkably resilient, often finding moments of laughter even on their hardest days. Their optimism inspires me daily to focus on the positives and appreciate the small moments.

I am proud to have served as class president in my PA program, earning induction into the Pi Alpha National Honor Society and receiving the student advocate award. Outside of work, I enjoy building Lego sets—I’ve completed more than 30 in the past two years—and spending time with my significant other exploring the zoo, museums, Kings Island and seeing the latest movies.
