Meet Our Administrative Staff

Carrie Burch, Office Manager

Carrie is what you would call an original “Yooper”. She comes from a small town called Marenisco, where she graduated with 6 people in her class from a school that was K-12.  She received her Associates Degree in Applied Business from Gogebic Community College and relocated to Jackson one year later

Carrie worked for 10 years billing radiology, where she was billing supervisor before bringing her skills to Moore Pediatrics as the office manager in 2005. She enjoys working in a practice of this size because of the relationships she has built with the families and the quality of care that families receive here.

Carrie enjoys spending time with her boys, Tanner, 13 and Hunter, 8. She also likes going back home to the U.P. to visit with family and friends.
