About Melissa Horton, DO FAAP
I enjoy caring for children from infancy through adolescence. I believe communication and understanding are essential in developing lasting patient relationships. I explain available treatment options so families can make informed decisions. I focus on preventive care and encouraging children to live their healthiest lives. Growing up, my family was not blessed with good health. I was able to see firsthand the difference physicians can make in the lives of their patients and now I want to do the same for mine.Philosophy of care
I enjoy focusing on the needs of the patient and their families to provide the best possible, evidence-based care. This means listening to, informing and involving patients throughout the process.Gender
