Faith Matheka, P.A.-C.

I am passionate about preventive health, and I am excited to apply this to Pediatrics. I am eager for the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of my patients, and their families, by informing them on health-conscious behaviors. The habits we form as children tend to stick with us, even into adulthood. As part of your child’s visit, I will strive to provide education for fostering healthier routines for both you and your family.

I was raised in Nairobi, Kenya, which is located in East Africa. I have always had an interest in medicine and knew early on that I wanted to help people. I have called the Chippewa Valley home for more than ten years now. I originally moved here to pursue my education. I believe it takes a great team to provide the best care for our patients, and I enjoy being a part of that team here at Mayo Clinic.

In my spare time, I like spending time with my family, cooking, hiking, road tripping and reading.
