Personalized Care

Your child will be seen by one of our two pediatricians, who work together as a team. Paul Turke, MD, PhD, and Suzanne Thomashow, MD, PhD, are both board-certified pediatricians, each with over 20 years of pediatric experience. We have also recently expanded our health-care team with the addition of Natalie McHugh, our pediatric nurse practitioner, and Sarah Brannan, our pediatric physician assistant.

Newborn Doctor Visit Dexter

Newborns

We welcome newborns to our practice, including both hospital births and home births. We ask that all newborns be seen in the first week of life. Newborns hospitalized for extended periods will be scheduled for an initial visit a few days after discharge.

Family Doctors

New Families

New families, including those with older children, are also welcome to join our practice. We support your child’s growth and development, provide preventative care, and provide anticipatory guidance at well-child exams. Well-child exams are essential and required for all patients at Turke & Thomashow Pediatrics.

Vaccinations Dexter

Vaccinations

We recommend vaccinations according to guidelines established by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Our vaccination schedule is coordinated with our well-child exams. These visits are opportunities to learn about the health benefits that vaccination can provide for your child. Some parents, for a multitude of reasons, ultimately decide not to vaccinate or opt for an altered vaccine schedule. In these instances, we provide educational materials and ask parents to sign a vaccine waiver.

We warmly welcome your child to our practice.
