Dr. Paul Fowler MD, PhD, FAAP

SVI Peds pediatrician, Dr. Fowler celebrates the body's ability to heal itself. He is grateful to be bringing his perspective on pediatric holistic medical care to the Wood River valley. 

Dr. Fowler is a board certified pediatrician who has always seen the body as an ecosystem that lives and thrives in harmony when it is in balance. Long before he attended medical school at Eastern Virginia Medical School and residency at UC Davis for pediatrics, he dreamed of a medical practice with a core philosophy that focused on prevention and wellness, creating a felt sense of wholeness for the individual. He was a marine biologist prior to attending medical school.

It became clear in his training that working with children is his happy-spot and the opportunity to work with children from infancy to adulthood inspires the educational approach that Dr. Fowler offers. He is as interested in your child’s body's needs as your child’s college dreams. And he will offer as much information as he can squeeze into the time he gets with you and your family. Ultimately, his goal is to empower your family with working skills and knowledge toward your fullest potential.

Dr. Fowler has also trained in the functional medicine approach to wellness through both the Kresser Institute and International Functional Medicine. He brings patience and dedication to listening deeply and providing thorough care to your children's well-being needs. 

Dr. Fowler's long-ago vision of a wellness practice is being brought to Ketchum, ID and he is excited to share his experience and knowledge to expand wellness for you. He lives in Ketchum with his wife, Risa, their two children and two dogs. He enjoys nature in many forms.
