ABOUT US

Joyce Egbe MD. is both a mother and a pediatrician. Her family which includes her two young children are her pride and joy and she enjoys spending time with them. Her children are the primary source of her inspiration to provide the best care, both physically and emotionally for her patients and their families.

Dr. Egbe received her medical education at the University of Benin, College of Medicine, Nigeria in 1991. Following that, she worked as a family practitioner for about 3 years. Then, she went on to complete an internship and then residency in Ophthalmology in Nigeria. She relocated to the United States in the year 2000, and then completed a residency at the Driscoll Children’s Hospital, Texas A & M Health Sciences Center in 2007. Prior to her residency, Dr Egbe experienced a tragedy, for the first time in her professional career; she became a recipient of medical care rather than a provider. Her daughter (who later passed away) required long term hospitalization at Texas Children’s hospital for a heart condition that she was born with. This experience has put Dr. Egbe in a unique position where she truly understands parents’ concerns.
