What inspires you to do your job?
I strive to put parents at ease, while gaining their trust as well as that of their children. Nothing makes me happier than making patients laugh and become comfortable with me, as I watch them grow and experience milestones. I am so grateful to have come full circle and now be working in the office I grew up in. Visiting Dr. Prine used to be one of my favorite things to do as a child! My mom always had full faith in him, and I aspire to have that type of relationship with all of my patients and their families.
Professional Interests
Nutrition and exercise, preventive care, adolescent medicine.
Personal Interests
I love to run, read, attend the small country church I was raised in, and spend time on the farm I grew up on. Having been away from home for 15 years, nothing is more important to me or makes me happier than being with my family.
I have a wonderful husband named Amerson who makes me laugh daily and three beautiful children. Sadie Kate, 9 years old, plays piano and softball and is smart, tenacious and inquisitive; Tucker, 7, enjoys baseball and old cars, and is a biking phenom; Their 4 year old sassy, bossy little sister, Reese likes dolls and playing house.
Fun Fact
I love fresh sweet corn from my daddy’s garden. I love to laugh.
I was the state champion in the mile and half mile my senior year of high school (go Montgomery Central!), and went on to run varsity track during my four years at Yale.
PATIENT REVIEWS
“We have been seeing Dr. Pegram for several years now and she is very thorough and communication is great! She explains everything to us and my children are always excited to go see her. Her treatment for our children has always been 100% whether it’s for a yearly check up or an illness. We have all of our trust in her. Thank you so much for all that you do!” – Lindsey
“Great experience with Dr. Pegram and her staff. We never felt rushed and she took time to listen to our questions and was very thorough. Her nurse, Brooke, was very pleasant and attentive and followed up with us the next day to answer questions.” – Misty
“We had such a great experience yesterday for my daughter’s 4-year checkup. Dr. Pegram and her nurse Belle were fantastic! And we didn’t wait longer than 5 minutes for our appointment which is what’s appreciated!!” – Jessica
