Colleen M. Wallace, MD, FAAP: A New Era of Personalized Pediatric Care at Wonderland Pediatrics
Bringing Over 13 Years of Diverse Pediatric Experience to Enhance Family Health and Wellness
Dr. Colleen Wallace, a board-certified pediatrician with over 13 years of extensive experience in diverse pediatric settings, is thrilled to announce the opening of Wonderland Pediatrics, a new primary care practice dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized healthcare to children and their families. Located in the heart of Baltimore, Wonderland Pediatrics aims to redefine pediatric care through a holistic, family-centered approach.
Dr. Wallace brings a wealth of experience to her new practice, having previously worked as a pediatric hospitalist at the University of Maryland BWMC. There, she developed critical skills while caring for newborns in the Level II nursery, attending deliveries, and covering the pediatric emergency room. Her time in this high-pressure environment honed her ability to provide comprehensive care in critical situations, a skill that will benefit her young patients at Wonderland Pediatrics.
“Every child deserves the best possible start in life, and that begins with access to quality healthcare,” said Dr. Wallace. “At Wonderland Pediatrics, we are committed to fostering a supportive environment where families feel empowered to engage in their children’s health and well-being.”
After her hospital work, Dr. Wallace joined one of the largest federally qualified health centers in Baltimore, where she provided comprehensive primary care in a private practice setting. This experience solidified her dedication to serving the community and addressing the unique healthcare needs of diverse populations.
In addition to her primary care experience, Dr. Wallace has gained valuable expertise in urgent care at one of the country’s largest pediatric urgent care centers. This role allowed her to refine her diagnostic abilities and treatment strategies for acute illnesses and injuries, ensuring that her patients receive timely and effective care.
Recognizing the growing need for specialized pediatric services, Dr. Wallace has pursued additional training in obesity medicine, evidence-based autism evaluations, and pediatric mental health. Collaborating with the Maryland Behavioral Health Integration in Primary Care program, she has developed a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted challenges many children face today. Furthermore, her training in Collaborative problem-solving techniques equips her to effectively address challenging behaviors and promote positive outcomes for her patients.
When not providing care in her practice, Dr. Wallace enjoys spending quality time with her husband and four children, exploring the great outdoors, and indulging her love for reading and traveling with extended family. Her commitment to family values and community engagement is reflected in her practice philosophy.
“I firmly believe that a holistic, family-centered approach is essential for supporting the overall well-being of my patients,” Dr. Wallace stated. “At Wonderland Pediatrics, we welcome families from all backgrounds and strive to create a nurturing environment where every child can thrive.”
