“I've always loved kids,” explains Dr Simpson. She spent her young adulthood working at youth camps. When she completed medical school, she knew pediatrics would be incredibly fulfilling. It is a challenging career where she can regularly interact with children and their families in hopes of building stronger, healthier families. Dr Simpson was inspired to pursue her career in medicine from her mom, a single mother who raised two kids and completed a college degree. Outside of work, Dr Simpson enjoys spending time with her husband and two kids. She enjoys reading, working out (boxing, soccer and weight training) and attending University of Michigan football and basketball games.
