Matthew Heeren, MD
Pediatrics, Primary CareI'm an advocate for children and their families. My philosophy is that children grow and develop best when the entire family is well.
I want to partner with parents to promote each child's health and well-being. This includes all areas of cognitive, emotional, and physical development.
I'm a good listener, with a combination of a sense of humor and knowledge to be an effective practitioner.
As the father of three children, I understand the challenges involved in raising healthy and happy children. Through my background in clinical psychology, I gained experience working with ADHD, behavioral problems, academic difficulties and family dynamics. I also have a special interest in asthma and allergies and have done research on these conditions.
Talking to the pediatrician is often the first step parents take when their child develops behavioral problems. I can help families by recognizing and diagnosing problems. Ultimately, my goal is to connect parents with any number of resources, which will benefit both child and family.
I enjoy children of all ages. I treat children and adolescents from birth to age 21. I also welcome appointments with pregnant couples seeking a pediatrician before the birth of their child.
