WELCOME TO DR. TAYLOR AND FAREWELL TO DR. NGUYEN!

Seahurst Pediatrics would like to bid farewell to Dr. Jeannie Nguyen. Dr. Nguyen has provided excellent care to the patients and families of Seahurst Pediatrics over the last 5 years, but has expressed a desire to spend more time with her own children as they continue to grow. We here at Seahurst Pediatrics thank her for her years of dedication and wish her well.

If your child is cared for primarily by Dr. Nguyen, know that we remain committed to continuing to provide quality pediatric care for your family here at Seahurst Pediatrics. We are excited to announce that we have a new pediatrician joining our practice in August of 2023, Dr. Ginnie Taylor.

While born and raised in New Mexico, Dr. Taylor has been practicing medicine in the Pacific NW since 2015. She received her medical degree at the University of New Mexico and completed her pediatric residency training at the University of Connecticut. Dr. Taylor is board certified and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Dr. Taylor became a pediatrician because she enjoys the variety of ages she gets to take care of. From helping parents learn to confidently raise their newborn to helping teenagers navigate this difficult world, her goal is to help children and young adults thrive. She practices evidence-based medicine and feels that it is important to help develop treatment plans that parents and patients are comfortable with.

She enjoys watching children and families grow and is excited to be a part of the Burien and South Sound community. On her days off you can find her playing with her daughter at the beach, cheering at a Sounders game, or cuddling on the couch with her pups.

Dr. Taylor is accepting new patients beginning on August 10, 2023.

WELCOME DR. TAYLOR!!!
