About Sophie L. Austin, MD
I am an internal medicine and pediatrics physician who provides primary care for all ages, especially children with complex medical needs, adolescents and young adults. I appreciate getting to know my patients and their families, as well as helping them set and achieve their health-related goals in ways that work best for them. When not treating patients, I enjoy riding horses and spending time with my husband and pit bull, Carla.
