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.

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!

Promise was especially kind and understanding with all 4 kids and myself, she was quick and efficient without making it feel like we were being rushed. Dr Deichtmann was amazing at explaining everything and answered all questions without being condescending or annoyed, he also made sure we were comfortable with every step and explanation before moving on.

Our youngest child has Down Syndrome and is largely non-verbal. Dr D always takes whatever extra time is necessary to understand her needs and to treat her.

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.

Dr. Deitchman is fabulous. He has been our pediatrician for all 3 of my kids. He is caring, measured and concerned without being an alarmist and makes everyone feel comfortable and safe. Dr. Deitchman is well-versed in treating kids that may have some anxiety/nervousness and understands that some kids need a lot of information to feel comfortable. There is no one we would rather see as our pediatrician!

Dr. Deitchman is always so amazing when caring for all of our kids, but he deserves a special acknowledgement for always making our pre-teen daughter feel so comfortable during her examinations.
-
June 08, 2023
Love that Dr. Deitchman listens to our concerns and allows us to help guide his treatment plan. We were able to do a combination of medications to treat the ear infection which was GREATLY appreciated since he's not great at taking medications. So grateful it worked so we could get some sleep and help him feel better faster!
-
June 08, 2023
The nurse that attended to us was AMAZING! His fever spiked as we arrived and she helped me hold him to give him a Tylenol suppository. She also had to draw quite a bit of blood from his finger and I know he hand was cramping when it was done. She was super patient and attentive (even bringing two rounds of suckers including one to the sibling of the patient). I'm guessing we were one of the harder patients of the day but she never showed it!
