Dr. Emily Walkey, a board-certified pediatrician, has begun welcoming patients from birth through their college years at the Braden Clinic in the Ave Maria town center.

Other services offered include: Well baby, child and adolescent exams, sports physicals, same day sick visits, vision and hearing screening, vaccine administration, management of chronic illness, lactation assistance, nutritional assessment and counseling and mental health visits.
