Deb Weimerskirch, M.D. Board Certified Pediatrician At Our Woodbury Location I enjoy helping families take care of their sick or injured children. As an asthmatic myself, I have a particular interest in caring for children with respiratory illnesses. My years as an Emergency Department physician has given me a solid foundation for my work here in the sick clinic. I am also a certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide and love sharing this practice with others. I have been with Central Pediatrics since 2024. My favorite moments as a pediatrician are hearing the stories of the children. They have such a unique perspective on life. I went into pediatric medicine because I wanted to provide a better experience for my patients than I experienced when I was hospitalized as a child and scared without my parents by my side. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time in nature with my husband and going for long walks with my dog.

Helping children and parents. Making medicine less scary to children. Partnering with families. “Anything that is human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable.” —Fred Rogers
