A child’s ability to find joy in every situation and live in the present moment both inspires me and reminds me to appreciate the little things in life we often take for granted.
Background
Ellie Kow joined our practice as a nurse in 2021 and transitioned to the role of Nurse Practitioner in 2024. She earned her undergraduate degree from Washington University School of Nursing and completed her Doctor of Nursing Practice at Rush University.
Ellie’s passion for pediatrics stems from her admiration for the resilience and honesty of children. She finds it deeply fulfilling to navigate the unique challenges of pediatrics while supporting young patients and their families through critical stages of growth and development. Ellie values the opportunity to collaborate with families from diverse backgrounds, believing that fostering mutual trust and understanding is key to empowering patients in their health journeys. She takes pride in educating and guiding families, helping them feel confident and engaged in making decisions about their care.
Originally from San Jose, California, Ellie spent much of her childhood in Malaysia. She now resides in the Seattle area with her husband and their Australian shepherd. In her free time, she enjoys traveling, cooking, reading, and exploring creative outlets like ceramics, painting, and photography. Ellie also enjoys snowboarding with her husband in the winter and exploring local markets and beaches during the summer.
