I'm continuously inspired by the energy and resilience of children, and the love of parents.
Background
Dr. David Reuter studied liberal arts at St. Andrews University in Scotland, engineering at Purdue University, and received his PhD in bioengineering, before attending medical school at Indiana University. He completed his pediatric residency at Pittsburgh Children's Hospital. Dr. Reuter worked at Seattle Children's Hospital in the emergency department for 15 years before joining our practice in the fall of 2014.
Dr. Reuter is an advocate for improving the lives of children. When he lost a patient to heart disease, he worked for a decade to develop a cardiac implant for patients with heart failure. Dr. Reuter is currently spearheading a clinical trial in collaboration with PATH and Seattle Children's to solve preeclampsia (pregnancy-associated hypertension). He loves caring for kids, and feels that partnering with families to help children reach their full potential is a tremendous and rewarding privilege.
Married with two children, Dr. Reuter enjoys spending time with his family – playing with trains and Legos, reading books, riding bikes, and taking family hikes. In his spare time he enjoys riding his bike around the Northwest and going for long walks.
