About me

**Always open to new OB/prenatal patients and pediatric patients**

Dr. Little spent her childhood eating her fill of berries and peaches on her family’s farm on Sauvie Island, just northwest of Portland. She decided to pursue a career in family medicine after serving with a medical team in Peru during college.

Connecting with her patients and forming relationships with them is what brings her the most joy in medicine. Whether she is listening to her patients’ stories and concerns in clinic, delivering their babies or caring for them in the hospital, she enjoys every opportunity to partner with and compassionately serve them.

When she is not working, she enjoys spending time adventuring with her husband, son, and three doodles!  She also loves hiking, skiing, biking, painting, and being involved with her church.

  39. I really appreciated how Dr. Little took the time to explain things to me and make me feel really comfortable. She also answered my questions about symptoms I might be feeling after the fact and just like sort of gave me advice that was really helpful in general.
