“I blend evidence-based care with practical, down-to-earth advice, meeting families where they are. My goal is for kids to enjoy coming to the doctor and to build a strong foundation of trust. I strive to ensure families feel heard and take a collaborative approach to care and create goals that work for everyone. I recognize that even normal parts of development or health can be challenging, and together, we’ll find ways to support and guide you through them.”
About Dr. Blair
Dr. Blair was drawn to a career in pediatrics early in life and remained committed to that goal throughout high school and college. He completed his medical education at OHSU in Portland and went on to complete a pediatric residency at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Dr. Blair has been practicing as a pediatrician since returning to the Portland area in 2013.
While he enjoys all aspects of pediatric care, Dr. Blair has a special interest in working with families navigating ADHD and autism. He finds great fulfillment in helping families access school supports, secure essential classroom services, and obtain needed behavioral health resources, including medication management when appropriate.
Outside of work, Dr. Blair enjoys home remodeling projects, woodworking, and exploring his interest in wine. Most of all, he values spending time with his giant, cuddly Bernese Mountain Dog, Toby.

Favorite childhood memory…
Camping at the Oregon coast with my family, cooking over the fires and swimming in the cold ocean. In the winter, driving out to Mo's for a cup of clam chowder and steamers and spending time on the beach rain or shine!.
In my spare time…
I like working in the yard or relaxing with my dog on the couch. He's a giant but that doesn’t mean he isn't a lap dog.
