Advocating for every patient, one wish at a time ✨
As a board-certified pediatric pulmonologist at Atrium Health Levine Children’s Brenner Children’s Hospital, Dr. Stacey Peterson-Carmichael walks alongside families as they navigate challenging diagnoses.
For years, Dr. Peterson-Carmichael has cared for children dealing with complex lung and multisystem conditions, providing thoughtful, family-centered care to every patient she meets.
Beyond delivering expert clinical care, Dr. Peterson-Carmichael looks beyond the exam room—building meaningful relationships with patients and caregivers and advocating for them every step of the way. As a member of Make-A-Wish Central and Western North Carolina’s medical advisory council, she helps ensure families feel supported both medically and emotionally, enabling young patients to create meaningful memories far beyond the hospital walls.
Whether she’s helping families access resources, collaborating with care teams to meet unique needs or ensuring patients receive care that honors their whole story, advocacy is central to Dr. Peterson-Carmichael's approach as a physician.
We’re incredibly grateful for caregivers like Dr. Peterson-Carmichael, who provide more than just clinical support for our patients and their families. Her dedication to families reminds us that healing can take many forms—and that compassion makes all the difference.❤️
