Biography Excerpt:
As the senior partner at Grosse Pointe Pediatrics Internal Medicine, Cal H. Worrell, MD, MA, FAAP, is responsible for the health and treatment of pediatric patients, many of whom remain with him until their twenties. With a medical degree from Wayne State University in 1950, as well as a bachelor of arts in psychology from Albion College, Dr. Worrell has dedicated the last 60 years of his professional life to the fields of medicine and clinical psychology, a statement very few providers are able to claim.
