MONROE — Growing up, Tedd R. “Teddy” March knew he wanted to be a doctor. Next month, the 29-year-old will be working with his father, Tedd L. March, a primary care physician with more than 30 years’ experience and a practice at 2252 N. Monroe St.
In 2019, Tedd L. opened his own internal medicine practice, March Medical Associates , with the intent of making it a family business. He and his wife Debra have three children — Rebecca, Tedd R. and Michael.
After graduating from Monroe High School, each of the March children went to college to pursue a career in medicine.
Teddy will be the first of the March trio to start working with dad in July. Michael is starting his family medicine residency in Monroe and Rebecca is completing her first year of podiatry residency in Toledo.
Teddy remembers being in school and his fellow classmates saying what they wanted to be when they grew up. Many of them wanted to play in the NBA or the NFL and be famous.
“I was in the fourth or fifth grade and I wanted to be a doctor,” Teddy March said. “It’s what I knew growing up. I was around it, and I had an infatuation with it. That’s the only thing that has been on my mind for a career.”
