The physicians of Parkwood Pediatric Group announced today that Kirby J. Smith, MD has joined their practice. Doctor Smith, who previously cared for patients at a Summerville pediatric practice, will be caring for Parkwood Pediatric Group patients at the practice’s Daniel Island and West Ashley offices beginning May 1.

Before becoming a physician, Dr. Smith was a research specialist at MUSC and a lab specialist at the University of Pennsylvania. He also served in several volunteer capacities, including working as an EMT with a volunteer fire company near his home in Pennsylvania and on the SUGAR bus, performing free diabetes screenings and education in underserved South Carolina communities.

“As a member of the Lowcountry’s medical community, and a graduate of MUSC’s Department of Pediatrics, I have been aware of the excellent reputation of Parkwood Pediatric Group for years,” said Kirby Smith, MD. “It’s an honor to join this practice.
