Kirsten loves to run as fast as the wind. But when she’s with her patients, she’s as laidback and as relaxed as can be. It makes the children she cares for relax too. And feel better.

Dr. Kirsten Kershaw received a Bachelor of Science and MD in the Honors Program of Medical Education at Northwestern University Medical School. She is board certified in pediatrics and licensed in Illinois. After interning at the University of Chicago, Wyler Children’s Hospital, she served her residency in the Pediatric Department of Indiana University Medical Center.
