Susie Gartman
BSN, RN
Susie Gartman, BSN, RN, is a licensed Registered Nurse whose love of children led her to specialize in pediatric nursing. She earned her bachelor’s degree at UTA and has been working for Pediatricians of Dallas since 2002. With years of experience and accumulated knowledge about ADHD and other behavioral issues, she stepped into the role of “ADHD nurse” at POD in 2010.
Children diagnosed with ADHD are often very bright. The inability to focus and control their impulses makes it difficult for them to reach their greatest academic potential. These children are already smart! They just need help with their challenges associated with ADHD. There are no words to describe the joy parents feel when their child is happy, and their self-esteem improves.
Susie’s role as an ADHD nurse is not only to help our patients’ parents clinically, but also to support them emotionally with answers to all their questions and concerns. She will work directly with your child’s pediatrician to find the right treatment over time. Each child is unique and will be treated with a customized plan. When we find the optimal program for your child, it will all have been worth it!
