Rebecca Tusken MD, FAAP
Making a difference in patient's lives is the reason Rebecca Tusken wanted to be a doctor.
“I have always wanted to be a pediatrician, since about 7 years old,” she says. “I love getting to know families on a personal level and watching them grow and thrive”.
Dr. Tusken started at Johnson County Pediatrics in September 2017.
She grew up in Shawnee and attended private school in the Kansas City metropolitan area from kindergarten through high school. In 2010 she graduated from Pittsburg State University with degrees in Biology and Spanish. She earned her medical degree in 2014 from the University of Kansas School of Medicine and was in the pediatrics’ residency program at KU from 2014 to June of 2017.
Dr. Tusken has a daughter. In her free time, she enjoys playing volleyball, baking, puzzles, board games, and spending time with family. Her favorite quote comes from her mother: "If you cannot do good, then doing well will never be enough."
Dr. Tusken sees patients on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.
