If the links to the patient portal on this page keep going to our old portal (Intelichart), it's probably because your device has an old version saved in its cache. If you clear your cache, that should fix the problem. Or you can click here: New Portal

Jeff Couchman MD

I was born near Detroit, Michigan, which I always say is a good place to be FROM (I'm very happy now to be living in Tucson, instead). I went to undergraduate school at the University of Michigan, mostly because it was where all my friends were going and I didn't want to fill out any more college applications. For medical school, I did a little more searching and interviewing and ended up at Washington University in St. Louis. I enjoyed St. Louis but, though it's both south and west of Detroit, it still wasn't what I had in mind. When I finished medical school, I interviewed throughout the West and chose to do my residency here in Tucson, at the University of Arizona. I fell in love with Tucson during those three years and decided to make it my permanent home.
Susan McMahon MD

Rumor has it that there are not many native Tucsonans but I am one of them. I live in the neighborhood where I grew up, less than a mile from Mesquite Pediatrics. My dad would often quip about life in Tucson as 'another day in paradise' and I share his view. I never tire of the view of the Catalinas and cannot imagine shoveling snow on a regular basis.
Nicole Abdy MD

I am proud to be a native Arizonan, born in Phoenix and raised in the scenic locale of Cave Creek, Arizona. I moved to Tucson in 1999 to pursue my undergraduate degree in Physiology at The University of Arizona. Falling in love with Tucson during my undergraduate years (as well as my husband, Nick), I’ve permanently settled in this beautiful city. As a die hard Arizona Wildcat, I was thrilled to be able to complete my medical school training, Pediatric Residency, and a year as Chief Resident of Pediatrics at The University of Arizona (Go Cats!).
