Overview

Dr. Branham started her medical career in academics, working and teaching at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine. She went on to establish a private practice in her hometown of Decatur, IL where she practiced pediatrics for 12 years. Dr. Branham is excited to be a part of NorthShore Health Centers where she can use her training and years of experience to positively impact the lives of children and their families in NW Indiana.
