Dr. Katherine Pederson obtained her undergraduate degree from the University of Texas at Arlington, and her medical degree from A.T. Still University- Kirksville College of Medicine, the founding Osteopathic Medical School. She then completed her residency at the University of North Texas Health Science Center, where she and her colleagues were the very first to graduate from the integrated class of Family Medicine and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine. As a result of her outstanding work, she was awarded the high honor of Chief Resident.
Dr. Pederson is very passionate about treating patients with a "whole person" approach to medicine, treating the entire person rather than just the symptoms, which is what initially drew her to pursue Osteopathic Medicine. Her clinical specialties include Family Medicine, Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT), treating musculoskeletal pain, joint injections, preventative medicine, pediatric medicine, breastfeeding issues, and women’s health. Dr. Pederson treats patients of all ages, from infant to elderly.
As a Grand Prairie native, Dr. Pederson grew up an avid Texas Rangers baseball fan. When she is not working, she enjoys spending time with her family, reading, and raising chickens.
Dr. Pederson discloses that she has no relevant financial relationships with any organization producing, marketing, reselling, or distributing health care goods or services consumed by, or used on, patients relative to the content of this presentation.
Carrie Schirato is the founder and executive director of Reclaim 611, an anti-human trafficking non-profit organization. In addition, she is a nurse practitioner, a mom, and a wife.
She graduated from Baylor University with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Her love for emergency medicine compelled her to complete a Masters and Post-Masters certificate at the University of Texas at Arlington, and currently works as a Family Nurse Practitioner and Acute Care Nurse Practitioner at a Level 1 Trauma Center in Dallas Texas.
She has spent the majority of her career missing opportunities to help those who are victims of modern-day slavery. However, now that her eyes have been opened and she has been equipped to recognize, respond, and report victims of human trafficking her life has been personally and professionally changed forever.
