    MSMC members, physicians, medical students, and their families enjoyed a beautiful fall day at the Milwaukee County Zoo on October 5! The event marked our first-ever joint county gathering, bringing together colleagues from across the state for an afternoon of connection and community.

    It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces enjoying the sunshine, conversation, and a relaxed day outside the clinic. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event a success!

    Special thanks to WisMed Assure and WisMed Financial and for their generous support, which made the day possible. 

    We look forward to hosting more opportunities like this for MSMC members to connect, recharge, and celebrate the local medical community!

    Together Tech is a local initiative started by Neerja Ahuja, niece of MSMC Board Member Dr Manohar Ahuja. Together Tech works to bridge the digital gap for students to remove technological barriers to learning.

    Neerja’s work began with research and interviews with staff and leaders from a variety of community organizations. This includes Bread of Healing Clinic, Progressive Community Health Center, City on a Hill, Sixteenth Street Clinic, United Way, SEA Literacy, and Hope House of Milwaukee. The research and interviews suggested the best approach to helping students to deliver digital literacy workshops in community centers. Sessions are geared towards children in fourth through eight grade and free of charge.

    Visit Together Tech’s website for more information on this important and impactful community initiative.

    Kellie Snooks, DO, MPH

    Pediatric Critical Care Physician, MCW

    Tell us a bit about yourself, including your professional background and your current role in medicine.

    I am an Assistant Professor in Pediatrics at MCW and an Attending Physician in Pediatric Critical Care at Children's Wisconsin. I completed medical school at Midwestern University in Downers Grove, IL and my Pediatrics Residency at Advocate Children's Hospital in Oak Lawn, IL. My pediatric critical care fellowship was at MCW where I remained on as faculty starting in 2021. My academic focus is on health policy and advocacy, specifically on firearm injury prevention and community-based initiatives to prevent violence in youth.

    What inspired you to pursue a career in medicine, and what drew you to your particular specialty?

    Although my career is emotionally challenging, the one thing that drew me to Pediatric Critical care is the children and their families. Children are resilient.

    What’s the most memorable moment you’ve had as a physician?

    I have had so many memorable encounters with my patients and their families it is hard to pick just one.

    What motivated you to join the MSMC board?

    The focus on the community and how we can continue to reach out to our local community and give back to them.

    What’s the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done?

    Shark Cage Diving in South Africa.
