Meet Dr. Dhaatri Kuchipudi
Dr. Kuchipudi has known she has wanted to be a pediatrician since she knew she was going to be a doctor. There is nothing compared to the infectious joy of a child!
For someone who loves every aspect of medicine and all the subspecialties, pediatric hospitalist was an easy choice. Dr. Kuchipudi finished her pediatric residency training at Michigan State University in Lansing, MI after her medical school at Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine in New York.
Every patient and every experience teaches us something new and for an eternal learner, this is the perfect job. Taking care of children has never felt like a job but truly feels like a privilege. The best part of the job is knowing that not only are you helping a child feel better but you are helping a whole family, someone's child, someone's sister or brother and someone's grandchild and friend.
When not practicing medicine, Dr. Kuchipudi loves to read thriller novels, hike any mountain she can and bike any trial she can find. She loves music and dances whenever she can!
When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.
