Female Pediatrician at Evergreen Pediatrics in Kirkland, WA

At Evergreen Pediatrics, our team of female pediatricians is known throughout Kirkland and the surrounding communities for their exceptional blend of medical expertise, compassionate care, and dedication to family-centered pediatric medicine. Each of our physicians is board-certified, ensuring they uphold the highest standards of pediatric knowledge and continuously engage in ongoing professional development.

Our pediatricians believe that children’s health extends far beyond simply treating illnesses. We focus on the whole child—supporting not only their physical well-being but also their emotional and developmental growth. We recognize that every child and family is unique, and we strive to provide care that is individualized to each family’s specific needs and circumstances.

What truly sets Evergreen Pediatrics apart is our commitment to building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. Our pediatricians take the time to listen attentively, address your questions and concerns, and involve you in every step of your child’s healthcare journey. Whether it’s a routine checkup, managing chronic conditions, or navigating important developmental milestones, we work collaboratively with families to create personalized care plans that fit your child’s needs.

Preventive medicine is at the heart of our practice. Our female pediatricians prioritize patient and parent education, ensuring you are empowered with the latest information and resources to make informed decisions for your child’s health. We are strong advocates for vaccination and preventive screenings, and we are active participants in community outreach initiatives in Kirkland, helping to keep our community’s children safe and healthy.

At Evergreen Pediatrics, we understand that choosing the right pediatrician for your child is a deeply personal decision. Many families have found that selecting a female pediatrician offers unique benefits, both medically and emotionally.

Our female pediatricians are known for their compassionate and nurturing approach, helping children feel comfortable and secure during every visit. This sense of trust can make it easier for young patients—especially girls—to talk openly about their health, leading to better communication and more accurate diagnoses.

Female pediatricians also serve as positive role models, exemplifying confidence, professionalism, and empathy. For adolescent girls, having a female doctor can make conversations about sensitive topics like puberty, menstruation, and sexual health less intimidating, creating a safe space for important discussions. Many parents also appreciate the ability to discuss issues such as breastfeeding, infant care, and emotional health with a physician who may share similar experiences and perspectives.

Research shows that female physicians often spend more time with patients and focus on preventive care, which can contribute to better health outcomes for your child. At Evergreen Pediatrics, our priority is to connect your family with a pediatrician who truly understands and supports your needs—regardless of gender. However, for some families, the unique qualities and perspectives our female pediatricians bring can make a meaningful difference in their healthcare experience.

Our commitment to your child’s health shines through every aspect of our vaccination approach. Our board-certified pediatricians—led by skilled female physicians—combine evidence-based medicine with compassion, clear communication, and a deep understanding of childhood development and parental concerns.

During your child’s well visits, we carefully review their immunization history and overall health. We recognize that parents may have questions or concerns about vaccines, and we strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where you feel comfortable expressing them. Our providers take the time to address common myths and misconceptions, offering honest, accurate information about vaccine safety, effectiveness, and the diseases they prevent.

Education is at the heart of our philosophy. We clearly explain the recommended vaccination schedule, why timely immunizations matter, and the potential risks associated with delaying or skipping vaccines. We also emphasize the importance of herd immunity—helping protect not only your child but also the most vulnerable members of our community.

At Evergreen Pediatrics, we know every child is unique. We carefully consider each child’s medical background, allergies, and any previous vaccine reactions, tailoring our approach as needed. If your child has special circumstances, we’re prepared to make appropriate adjustments, such as alternative immunization plans, to keep them safe and healthy. During vaccinations, we use age-appropriate techniques to minimize discomfort and anxiety for both children and parents.

At Evergreen Pediatrics, our team is highly trained and prepared to manage pediatric emergencies with competence, composure, and swift action. Our pediatricians are experts at quickly assessing a child’s condition using standardized protocols such as the ABCs: airway, breathing, and circulation. Drawing on their extensive medical knowledge and experience, our providers work collaboratively to determine the severity of each situation and prioritize critical interventions.

Communication is a cornerstone of emergency care at Evergreen Pediatrics. Our pediatricians communicate clearly and calmly with nurses, support staff, and families—providing timely updates, instructions, and reassurance. Whether overseeing resuscitation efforts or performing emergency procedures, our doctors delegate tasks efficiently and ensure that all necessary equipment and medications are readily available.

Decision making during emergencies is rapid, evidence-based, and always patient centered. We pride ourselves on our ability to adapt to each unique situation and to offer comfort and empathy to children and their families, even during stressful moments.

After stabilizing a child, our pediatricians closely monitor their progress, coordinate further care or hospital transfers if needed, and conduct team debriefings to continually improve our emergency response. The composure, decisiveness, and compassion of our medical staff—including our female pediatricians—are vital in ensuring the best outcomes for every child in our care.

Our dedicated team is committed to creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for every child and family we serve. Our female pediatrician, Dr. Basma Raees, MD, understands how important it is for children to feel safe and at ease during their visits.

During appointments, Dr. Basma takes the time to listen closely to both children and their parents, encouraging open communication and addressing every concern with patience and empathy.
