Meet Dr. Michael Deitchman
As early as elementary school, Michael Deitchman, M.D., knew he wanted to be a doctor. Born in Canada, Dr. Deitchman came to Texas as soon as he could.
As a pediatrician, Dr. Deitchman knows how important it is to parents to have a doctor who truly listens to their concerns, and their children's concerns, and then offers clear explanations and supportive information.
He was raised here in the Mid-Cities and is a proud graduate of L.D. Bell High School. He completed his undergraduate studies at Houston Baptist University and his medical degree at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. Dr. Deitchman completed his pediatric residency at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina. He is board-certified in pediatrics and a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Texas Medical Association.
Dr. Deitchman is an Eagle Scout and continues to be active in Scouting. He and his wife, a neonatal intensive care nurse, love doing just about anything outside.

Deitchman has been our primary care for our almost 3 year old and now newborn and has never disappointed. He's always informative and helpful with even the minuscule questions I may provide.

Our newborn is on [...] and it's been very difficult navigating simple tasks like a doctors visit-hauling around equipment and navigating all of the connecting cords. Then nurses were very patient with our slow movement, and Dr. Deitchman brought ease and peace of mind to our "not long term situation".

This last visit was amazing. This was the third time my child had come in with ear pain in 2 months. Dr. Dietchman and his staff listened to all of my concerns and even addressed my daughter when asking what was wrong. Each staff member took the time to thoroughly evaluate any pains and illnesses she was facing. My daughter felt very cared for after leaving the appointment.

Dr. Dietchman has been our child's pediatrician for the last several years. He is always very attentive to my daughter's and my concerns. He listens to both our questions and answers them accordingly. He always makes my daughter feel safe during examinations and always asks her permission before examining her. He explains plan of treatment to me and detail and even takes the time to explain to my daughter on her level. I cannot recommend his services enough!

Dr Deitchman and his nurse went FAR ABOVE the call of duty!! My son needed a shot which unfortunately your office no longer carries. He and his nurse called local compounding pharmacies, Cook facilities, personal contacts, etc to find the shot he needed for his strep on a Saturday. He located it at the Cook downtown as a backup but also helped us get an appointment at the Cook Urgent Care Center next door when they opened so we didn't have to drive downtown and ensured they didn't have to re-run the strep test again. I am so grateful that the staff understood our needs and ensured he had the treatment ASAP to get better.
