Shailendra Misra MD

Medical School: Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, India
Residency: Pediatric residency at Medical College of Ohio, Toledo, Ohio
Fellowship: Pediatric emergency medicine at Children’s Hospital of Michigan, Detroit, Michigan
Practice Emphasis: I aim to treat children and their families as I would my own. I like my treatment focus to be complete pediatric care, from newborn to young adult. On each visit I place great emphasis on education as well as prevention. When parents and children understand their illness, then they are better able to cope with and follow through with treatment guidelines.
Personal Information:
I have 3 children.
I have lived the majority of my life in Ontario, Canada.
We are extremely active as a family, such as swimming, dancing, gymnastics, softball, basketball, cross country running, marathons, and triathlons.
Before going into medicine, I was a high school teacher for 4 years.
When asked why he chose to come to Wauseon, Dr. Misra replied:
My childhood was spent growing up in small towns, where everyone knew you, and there was a sense that people cared about you. Over the past nine years my focus as a pediatrician has been in pediatric emergency medicine at larger health facilities. I am extremely grateful to return to the small town atmosphere where I can treat people like family. I want to learn your child’s name and remember it, watch your child grow, and know that I was a small part in their life.
