Been feeling pretty fired up about direct primary care this week. Also apparently on a roll with reels right now, too 😂

SFP is one of three drop-off sites for the diaper drive for the West Bay Baby Pantry through May 20th! Please consider donating some unopened packs of diapers to families in need. All sizes/brands welcome but sizes 4-6 are particularly in demand. There’s a box out front so you’re welcome to come by and pop some diapers in any time, 24/7 ❤️

I’ve been meaning to do a post for a while about strep throat as there are lots of misconceptions floating around out there. Hope this is helpful, and as always, please ask your actual physician for medical advice when you need it!

SFP is proud to be a sponsor of this year’s Fishtown 5k! Fishtown is one of this county’s many treasures, and the Fishtown Preservation Society works hard to protect this living heritage of Great Lakes maritime traditions. We love running and walking in the Fishtown 5k every summer - it’s a fun, family-friendly course and an enjoyable event whether you’re aiming for a competitive time or just want to enjoy a pleasant stroll! You can register online at runsignup.com/Race/MI/Leland/Fishtown5K.

Stowe Farm Pediatrics offers private, unhurried ear piercing appointments for all ages. Piercings can be done in-home or at our office; we’ve recently added new online booking options for Wednesday and Friday appointments, or you can submit an inquiry form to schedule an in-home piercing or find another day or time! We use the tried and true Blomdahl piercing system which features a sterile, reliable system and medical-grade titanium or medical-grade plastic piercing studs (different cute styles available to choose from!). Your piercing will be performed by one of our pediatric clinicians, and we always take the time to walk through all steps of the procedure, discuss our aftercare recommendations, and make sure all questions are answered!

In addition to our regular practice, Stowe Farm Pediatrics now offers standalone lactation services in Grand Traverse and Leelanau! We offer personalized, comprehensive, and compassionate support for all things lactation, from prenatal consultations to support after delivery to troubleshooting problems and beyond! Our lactation care is provided by Jenn, a family nurse practitioner and advanced nurse lactation consultant, with physician supervision. We offer both in home and office options. Check out our website, reach out to us, and follow us at !

My SFP families know what an integral role our nurse practitioners, Becky and Jenn, play in this practice. Becky has been with me since day one, and Jenn joined almost a year ago and almost instantly became an absolutely indispensable part of SFP as well. I am so thankful to have such dedicated, compassionate, and skilled nurse practitioners on my team, and I’m so thankful, too, for all the wonderful nurse practitioners who I’ve worked with and learned from in the past (especially all you NICU NNPs who walked me through countless umbilical lines and intubations and chest tubes!) ❤️. Happy National Nurse Practitioner Week!

It’s been a heck of a month - and year! - at SFP. When I first started the practice two years ago I was terrified that it would be a total flop. But I was tallying up the vaccines we’ve administered in October (crushed our previous record!) and thought it might be fun to do some counting. I’m so proud of what we’ve built, and so endlessly thankful for all of the many, many people who have helped to make this all possible.

I’ve almost quit medicine at so many points - I remember being extremely pregnant once during a rotation on the pediatric hematology-oncology service as a resident (a very heavy place to be), and not being able to get home on a Sunday evening because of a snowstorm, and crying myself to sleep in the call room, missing my other two babies at home and not knowing if I’d get home in time to even see them the next night.

And then the disillusionment at the state of health care in this country, and the challenges coming from all sides - the administrative burdens and profit-driven systems, the lack of physician autonomy and devaluing of primary care and pediatrics, the misguided metrics and insane time pressure, and more.

Building a practice from the ground up hasn’t been easy, but I’ve put my heart and soul into SFP and it’s fun to take a step back and reflect a little bit on what we’ve accomplished! Thank you to our amazing families for entrusting us with the care of your most precious little people. I’m proud that we’ve been able to carve our own independent and creative path in these weird times, and I look forward to seeing what the future holds!

Respiratory virus season is coming - if you’re looking for a safe and comfortable environment for fall vaccines (flu, Covid, and the RSV antibody medication, Beyfortus, for babies), feel free to reach out to us! I have plenty of Moderna pediatric Covid doses in particular, which is a hot commodity these days. We can process through insurance except for Medicaid plans; cash pay available as well. Happy to vaccinate adults as well. Submit an inquiry form at stowefarmpediatrics.com/vaccines or text the office and we’ll be happy to help
