Dr. Stehouwer is the associate program director of the combined internal medicine-pediatrics (med-peds) residency program as well as the founder and director of the med-peds consult service at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center in Cleveland, OH.
Before becoming a physician, Dr. Stehouwer studied philosophy at Calvin College where he received his undergraduate degree in 2007. He then received his medical degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in 2011, where he developed an interest in the care of children with complex and life-long medical conditions, leading him to pursue a med-peds residency to learn how to provide care to these children who continue to combat their illnesses well into adulthood. He completed this residency at University Hospitals and Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital (which share a campus) in 2015 after which he completed a med-peds chief resident year in 2016. During his chief year, he began the aforementioned med-peds consult service to assist physicians in managing patients who straddle the divide between adult and pediatric medicine. In addition to running the med-peds consult service and acting as associate director of the med-peds program, Dr. Stehouwer also attends on both general medicine and pediatric wards individually.
