Experienced Pediatrician Now in Ave Maria…

Meet Dr. Emily Walkey!

I am a board-certified pediatrician and mama of three amazing children. I studied biochemistry at Purdue University before attending medical school at Indiana University School of Medicine. I then briefly moved South and completed my pediatric residency at Duke University Medical Center. I have spent the past six plus years working as a primary care pediatrician in the blustery state of Wisconsin. My husband recently took a position teaching theology at Ave Maria University, and I am excited to be joining the vibrant community of Ave Maria this Fall!

In my free time I love crafting with my daughter, sword-fighting with my son, and snuggling with my baby. I also enjoy cooking, baking, and cake-decorating.

Professionally, my areas of special interest include breastfeeding and lactation guidance and treatment of pediatric obesity. I love working with children of all ages and am currently accepting new pediatric patients from birth through their college years. I offer complimentary meet and greet appointments for expecting parents and families looking for a new pediatrician.
