Olive Leaf Pediatrics was started by a Board Certified Pediatrician and Mom to provide a style of care that is wholistic, family-centered, and brings back the personal touch of a “small town” doc.  

Wholistic

Olive Leaf Pediatrics focuses on treating the whole child at every visit.  While practicing evidence based medicine, Dr. Sheriff also discusses some “out of the box” approaches for certain conditions.  Our prescription pad includes lifestyle therapies such as nutrition, mindfulness, physical skills training, and more.  At the core of our practice philosophy is that Prevention is key!  

Family Centered

The practice was founded on the belief that true healing only comes when a doctor practices family centered care. Dr. Sheriff wants to develop a strong partnership with her parents with a common goal of helping our kids thrive.  Being a medical micropractice allows us to limit the number of patients in the practice so the focus is on building personal relationships and not assembly-line medicine.

Personalized Care

Our cozy clinic and other flexible visit options provide the benefit of truly traditional personalized medical care.  We uniquely provide car visits, telehealth, and housecalls as a convenience to our families because we understand how hard it is to navigate doctors visits with a newborn, sick child or medically complex child. The length of our visit will also be tailored to your family or child’s specific needs with our routine comprehensive visits being about an hour long.  

Why “olive leaf” ?...

The olive leaf is symbolic of our practice philosophy of treating mind, body and spirit!  It's nutritious and medicinal properties symbolize two of the major approaches our practice uses to heal the mind and body.  In spirit, it grows into a universal symbol for peace and tranquility.  Our practice strives to help your little "leaf" flourish into a wholesome "tree"!
