Morgan T. Decker, MD

Dr. Decker brings a deeply personal approach to patient care. “I try my best to treat every patient and their family as if they are one of my own,” she shared. “As someone who has navigated the world of medicine from the other side with a family member of my own, I know how much it means to patients and families when they feel as though they are being listened to and heard.”

As a general pediatrician, Dr. Decker provides comprehensive care for patients from birth through young adulthood. She is particularly interested in adolescent medicine, focusing on the unique healthcare needs of teenagers and young adults. To help the mamas of newborns, she is also pursuing additional training in lactation services.

“The tiny humans and the angsty teens!” she said when asked what motivates her. “All jokes aside, while pediatrics is traditionally a difficult field for many reasons, the joy that I experience while interacting with my tiny patients and young adult patients alike far surpasses any barriers I have experienced.”

Dr. Decker was part of the inaugural class at Penn State College of Medicine- University Park, where she earned her medical degree. She then completed her pediatrics residency at West Virginia University. During her time there, she was awarded Resident of the Year for Inpatient Pediatrics, the “Guardian of the Glomeruli” award for excellence in Pediatric Nephrology, and the inaugural award for Outstanding Resident in Adolescent Medicine.

Outside of caring for patients, Dr. Decker has an adventurous spirit. “My main hobby is to find new hobbies, as my family would joke,” she shared. “I enjoy dance, yoga, spending time with my French and English bulldogs, and reading. My aspirations include learning to play an instrument, roller skating, expanding my garden, and beekeeping.”
