Meet the Doctor

Welcome to Priority Pediatrics of the Palm Beaches! I'm Dr. Corinne Althauser, a board-certified pediatrician specializing in personalized, comprehensive care during the critical early years from birth to age 3. These formative years are a unique window for fostering healthy habits, supporting optimal development, and minimizing exposures that can shape a child’s lifelong health.

Over the past decade, I’ve seen the profound importance of early intervention in addressing the rising prevalence of chronic conditions in children—now affecting approximately 1 in 2. By focusing exclusively on the first three years, I help educate parents and promote healthy habits to reduce their child’s long-term risk of these conditions.

After 9 enriching years at Nicklaus Children's Hospital Urgent Care Centers, I established Priority Pediatrics to deliver the tailored, unrushed care families deserve. My integrative approach blends holistic and conventional medicine to address immediate concerns while supporting long-term wellness.

With over 10 years of pediatric expertise, I provide personalized care through well visits, urgent consultations, and guidance on establishing a strong foundation for lifelong health. Limiting my practice to children under age 3 allows me to focus on this critical developmental stage and offer truly individualized attention.

Outside of medicine, I enjoy traveling, spending time with loved ones, and caring for my “super-mutt,” Sadie. Completing yoga teacher training has enhanced my appreciation for the mind-body connection, a perspective I integrate into my pediatric practice to support the whole child.

This passion for integrative, family-centered care drives my commitment to providing exceptional service and building lasting relationships with the families I serve.
