INTERNAL MEDICINE
Dr. Jeffrey Schmidlein
Dear Patients,
After 40+ years of serving this community, I have made the difficult decision to retire from the clinical practice of medicine, effective May 29th, 2026. It has been an incredible honor to be part of your lives, sharing in your health journeys, triumphs, and challenges. I am deeply grateful for the trust you have placed in me over the years.
While I have been considering making this change for some time, I waited until I found the right physician to care for you. I am pleased to inform you that Dr. Ellegant Pearson, also an MDVIP-affiliated, board-certified physician, will be taking over my practice to ensure you continue to receive excellent care. I feel fortunate that Dr. Pearson has chosen to continue your care at my current office location, 844 Ritchie Highway, Suite 206, Severna Park, MD 21146. The phone number is still 410.647.8829. Your medical records will remain on file at this location.
Dr. Pearson is a wonderfully talented, empathetic, and highly intelligent physician. I have found her to be very insightful and a pleasure to work with. I am confident that she can continue providing you with the individualized attention and service to which you are accustomed. More information is on her website, mdvip.com/doctors/ellegantpearsonmd.
Amy, Dawn, Marc and Cindy will remain on staff and are thrilled to continue caring for you. Rest assured, Dr. Pearson and I are committed to making this transition as comfortable as possible. In the meantime, continue to call my office, as usual, for your medical needs.
I look forward to introducing you to Dr. Pearson at an upcoming event we are hosting. Details to follow. You will also have opportunities to meet Dr. Pearson in the office as she will be joining me starting May 1st. I wish you all the best for a long and healthy life.
With heartfelt appreciation,
Jeffrey C. Schmidlein, MD
