About Geshia Austin, MD

  • Dr. Austin enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. Together, they like to explore the city, especially the outdoors. She also enjoys running and reading.

As a pediatrician, the best part of my job is watching children grow and reach their full potential. My philosophy of care is focused on educating my patients and their families to promote healthy emotional and physical development.

    Dr. Austin was friendly, funny and completely ready to hear about all of my 7year olds symptoms and immediately thought it could be the flu. She was very gentle and explained everything to him that she was going to do. Very happy with yesterday's visit. I all ready recommend them to our neighbor.
