Sheri is from the Great White North of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She is a Canuck at heart, but loves Utah and the community she has found here. Sheri received her Master’s Degree in Nursing in 2004, with an emphasis in Pediatrics and is a board-certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, as well as an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Her Master’s thesis, focused on diagnostic practices of ADHD, was published in the Pediatric Nursing Journal (PNJ).
Her face may have a few wrinkles (who among us doesn’t?), but they are only from constant smiles and laughter at just how honest and adorable her young patients can be. She takes great enjoyment in being able to watch her patients grow from infancy to young adults and particularly cherishes the times when those former patients bring in children of their own.
Sheri has three children of her own, with whom she likes to go hiking and camping with, and she understands that while parenting can be incredibly rewarding, it can also be stressful. She always takes time to listen to a parents concerns and Sheri values parents’ opinions and loves talking with them about the care of their newborn to teenager.

I’ve been bringing my son to Family First Pediatrics for over 7 years, and I couldn’t be happier with the care we’ve received. The entire team is professional, kind, and truly dedicated to the well-being of their patients. Dr. Thomas is absolutely wonderful—always patient, thorough, and great at making both kids and parents feel at ease. I always feel confident that my son is in good hands here. Highly recommend this clinic to any family looking for reliable, compassionate pediatric care!
