About Dr. Knecht
Dr. Michelle Knecht is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Pediatrics in the Division of Neonatology at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center and has been a neonatologist at Children’s Hospital since 2018.

A little something extra:
Away from the hospital, you might find Dr. Knecht on a local sand volleyball court or relaxing at home with a good jigsaw puzzle.
