This is where she deals with real life issues. 

When asked why she does what she does for her patients, she answered: “It’s because I want them to have the best life possible and I believe in them”. The motto of my office is ‘BECAUSE EVERYONE MATTERS’. The patient-physician relationship that develops over time is good for my spirit too.”

A native of Tallahassee, Dr. Mignon graduated from Leon High School. She went to attend medical school at the Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston, Massachusetts, and completed her residency training in internal medicine and pediatrics at Yale University Hospital in Connecticut.

Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Physicians specializing in internal medicine are called internists. They manage and prevent common and complex diseases by providing comprehensive care and promoting overall well-being.

Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends people be under pediatric care up to the age of 21. Pediatricians provide medical care to people ranging in age from newborns to young adults. They are trained to examine, diagnose, and treat children with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses through all of their developmental stages, as they grow and mature.
