Our Doctors
"I love being a pediatrician. It really is the coolest job - it’s interesting and challenging and fun. The best part is how much the patients make me laugh. You never know what weird, goofy things they will say or do. Every visit is a surprise! And I love the people I work with - I’m so lucky to spend every day with such a caring and hardworking team."
Dr. Creed joined PediaTrust in 2019 at our Wheaton Pediatrics office, and quickly became a favorite of many of our patients. After a move in 2025, she's excited to be a part of Elm Street Pediatrics!
When not in the office, Dr. Creed likes to play the piano and, in fact, used to give piano lessons. She also enjoys arts and crafts, sewing, running, bike riding, and workout classes with her friends.
Dr. Creed received her bachelor’s degree in molecular and cellular biology from the University of Illinois and her MD from Rush University Medical College in Chicago. She completed her residency at Loyola University Medical Center.
Q&A
Tell us about your family life (including pets)
I grew up with lots of kids around. I have two brothers and 32 first cousins. Many of my cousins have kids now, so I have 26 (and counting!) first cousins once-removed. Including my goddaughter Lucie, who lives in Wheaton. My brothers live in Colorado and Utah, and they are really good skiers. I love to ski with them and pretend I can do the same jumps and tricks.
What’s something you think people would be surprised to learn about you?
My cousins and I made the longest ever (we think) hopscotch in Wheaton! We tried to call the Guinness Book of World Records, but then it rained, and the hopscotch disappeared.
What was your favorite book growing up?
Harry Potter. I was the same age as Harry when I started reading the books. I really felt like I could be one of his friends at Hogwarts. When each new book came out, my best friend and I would share the book and read it at the same time, sitting next to each other holding the book open to two different sections of the book. It was so much fun!
