UP Health System (UPHS) is pleased to announce that board-certified Pediatrician Amy Slette, MD, has joined its medical staff and will be offering care to patients from birth to early adulthood at both UPHS – Marquette and UPHS – Bell.
A graduate of Indiana University School of Medicine, Dr. Slette completed her residency training in Pediatrics at Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital in Grand Rapids, MI, after which time, she gained more than 20 years of experience in pediatric care in clinic, inpatient and birthing center settings. Prior to joining UPHS, she was with Aspirus Medical Group in Rhinelander, WI, where she also served on numerous health boards and volunteered with several community youth activities.
Establishing care from birth with a pediatrician like Dr. Slette is an essential part of ensuring your child’s health and well-being. Pediatric care is much more than treating children when they are sick—regular well-child visits also help to track your child’s health and development, both physically, mentally and socially.
“As a pediatrician, I have the unique privilege to be able to care for children and watch them grow from infancy to adulthood,” said Dr. Slette. “It is a joy to be a part of all those steps along the way, and I’m grateful to contribute to the health of this community’s future generations.”
Dr. Slette strives to provide excellent preventative, acute and chronic care for pediatric patients of all ages. She specializes in routine well-child exams, developmental screenings, sick visits, allergies, behavioral health concerns, acne, obesity and more.
Outside of work, Dr. Slette enjoys spending time with her husband and two sons, Nordic skiing, mountain biking, knitting and reading. “My family and I enjoy the small community here and the many outdoor activities that are plentiful throughout the Upper Peninsula,” she said.
Dr. Slette joins the team of experienced providers at UP Medical Group | Marquette Pediatrics, located at 1414 W. Fair Ave., Ste. 226, Marquette, MI. She will also see patients at UP Medical Group | Bell Pediatrics, located at 901 Lakeshore Dr., Ste. 208, Ishpeming, MI. Patients interested in scheduling an appointment can call 906.449.1240 or book an appointment online.
