Overview

Services

I have a special interest in diseases requiring both pulmonary and sleep expertise such as sleep-disordered breathing and anatomic airway abnormalities. My training provided me with the ability to assess pulmonary status, perform bronchoscopy and interpret a sleep study, all of which children with breathing and airway problems may need. My patients may see other subspecialties such as otolaryngology and gastroenterology, and I strongly believe in timely contact with all involved providers, including the pediatrician. I also feel that open communication with the patients’ families is essential in optimizing care.

Dr. Amos shows true interest in my child (who has medical trauma and does not like any other doctor) and my child can tell she cares. Definitely one of the good ones!

That if doctors are running behind, they need to have their other patients courtesy of letting them know. They are running behind schedule. It's just the courtesy of communication which sucks with these doctors.

Dr Amos is an angel. My son had an emergency while in her office and she knew exactly what to do to help him and also how to explain things to me calmly so he didn't get scared. Not only is she a great doctor, she is an amazing person as well. We are very grateful for Dr Amos!

We had an incredible experience. Dr. Amos was kind. She was caring. Her demeanor was very, it was very relaxed. I have a very, very anxious son and she made him feel incredibly comfortable. She explained everything to us in a way that we could understand. She asked how we wanted to proceed after she gave us all of the information. It was just a really wonderful experience. I actually wish we lived closer because I would love to have her as our pediatrician. I don't even know if that would be possible.

This is our first experience with Children's Hospital. From making the initial appointment, to meeting with the doctor, I was EXTREMELY impressed and appreciative of the kind, friendly, and informative way the staff interacted with us. It was such a pleasure to talk with the scheduler, receptionist, and doctor. Really a great team that made us feel welcome and at ease!

The front desk staff treated my family like we were their family, and the dr and nurse practitioner treated us like we were family as well! I absolutely love the drs and staff at children's hospital Mequon and Milwaukee! They're all amazing!!

I just want to say that I really appreciate the care of Dr. Amos. She always listens. My son, who was having a really hard time with the appointment, ran right up to her and gave her a big hug, which just made my mom's heart so happy to see how much that relationship not only has grown, but just is still reflected. For a not-even-3-year-old to recognize his lung doctor, and have that reaction to her was just heartwarming and just really made me appreciate, what great doctors and what great care we have. So, thank you. Bye-bye.

Dr. Amos is very kind and listened to my daughter when she asked questions and answered them so she could understand. She has a ton of experience!!! I would recommend her to any of my friends with children that have pulmonary or sleep issues.
