Lawrence Morrissey, M.D. Board Certified Pediatrician At Our Woodbury Location Schedule Now Hi, I’m Dr. Morrissey! I have been a pediatrician for 30 years, and have been with Central Pediatrics since 2014. My areas of interest include supporting patients’ Mental Health and helping families navigate pediatric health as their children grow and develop. It is wonderful to be a part of the transition from new parent uncertainty to a graduating teen ready to head out into the world. There are no silly questions, just ask. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my wife to experience the outdoors. Growing up in the heart of Chicago, I especially enjoy visiting urban areas to see the sites, trying new restaurants, and feeling the bustle of a neighborhood. I also enjoy seeing natural wonders and spending time golfing, bike riding, or nature walking. As a sports fan, I will always cheer for the University of Michigan. Go Blue! Undergraduate: University of Michigan Medical School: University of Illinois Residency: University of Minnesota Awards, Associations, and Memberships Board Certified by the American Board of Pediatrics Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) A Few of my Favorite Things: Listening and being present for people during difficult times. Talking with kids about the things that they like to do. Seeing my patients grow from infancy to adulthood. Supporting families as they make important decisions. "I want to help others and I enjoy watching kids grow up to become happy successful adults." —Dr. Morrissey
