Kate Lang

Nurse Practitioner, CPNP

I grew up in Rockford, IL, about an hour outside Chicago. I graduated valedictorian from Keith Country Day School and then attended Loyola University Chicago. I studied business and earned my MBA while working for a lobbying firm in Chicago. After some soul-searching, I decided that my heart was in healthcare. I studied Nursing at the University of Illinois Chicago and earned my MSN as a pediatric nurse practitioner. Since graduation, I have been working as a primary care PNP at a rural health clinic, and I am excited to start a new adventure here at Northpoint Pediatrics!

My husband and I have two beautiful children and a couple of cats. I love reading, gardening, and going out for coffee with friends. My husband and I enjoy taking the kiddos to museums, hiking trails, nature preserves, and the zoo.
