The Face of Pediatric Wellness
Keith Loud, MD Dartmouth Health Children’s
Keith Loud, MD isn’t one bit quiet about his commitment to improving the lives of children. As chair of pediatrics and physician-in-chief at Dartmouth Health Children’s, he’s very vocal about efforts to contribute to the health and well-being of young people. “I get to help teams of passionate pediatric health professionals achieve their goals, all aimed at our shared goal of helping all children live their happiest and healthiest lives,” says Dr. Loud. This type of enthusiasm for the future has led Dr. Loud to develop a more systematic regional approach that expands reach and accessibility to our most precious resource: children. With the widest breadth of pediatric services in the region, including CHaD, New Hampshire’s only full-service children’s hospital, Dartmouth Health Children’s offers comprehensive, integrated and inclusive care across its many locations. Leading a pediatric system of care in a dispersed rural region is a mission requiring creativity and innovative approaches to patient care, and Dr. Loud makes the overall objective loud and clear: “Whether we are treating inpatient children with heart conditions or promoting childhood obesity prevention and safe teen driving, our goal is to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of young people.”
