Miriam Dreifuss, MD
Location Glenview Care Philosophy I strongly believe that no two children are the same and therefore should be treated as individuals. My goal is to partner with parents and help guide them in raising their children in the healthiest way possible. Preventive medicine is key and teaching children how to build healthy habits they can carry into adulthood is so important. I like to spend time with patients and encourage parents to bring up any concerns they have as there is no such thing as a "silly question" when it comes to your child. All aspects of physical, mental, and emotional health are important, especially with all the new challenges children face these days. Having a young child myself I understand that parenting can be difficult, so through thoughtful patient education I hope to make the job just a little bit easier! Clinical Interests

Location Glenview Care Philosophy I am a board-certified general pediatrician and former English major who believes that everyone has a story worth telling, and that patients and their families do best when physicians are their teammates and collaborators. I am a firm believer in leaving well enough alone, and intervening only after careful, thoughtful evaluation of benefits versus risks for the patient as well as their family. I’m also a parent of two young children who lives the joys, frustrations and general chaos of parenthood every day! I am committed to providing the best acute and preventive care for all of my patients, from newborns to college seniors. Clinical Interests
