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.

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.

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!

I LOVED that they let us leave instead of waiting for flu/covid test results. It's so hard to wait with a sick child. We had a call with results before we even made it home. Great follow up!!!
