Reid Collins, MD

Dr. Reid Collins has been at Harpeth Pediatrics since 2000, an entire millennium. Over those years he has loved getting to know such a wonderful and diverse group of families and can't believe some of his earliest patients are now parents themselves (but he's not old...no, no, no). A Nashville native, he attended David Lipscomb (1st - 12th), Vanderbilt University (Biomedical Engineering 89-93 - Go Dores!), then the University of Tennessee College of Medicine for both med school and residency. While in Memphis, he met his beautiful wife, Merri, who is also a pediatrician. Reid and Merri have two children, Isaac and Rachel, both proud products of the Grassland schools and Franklin High. Isaac is a fourth-generation Vandy student studying engineering and saxophone (class of 2024). Rachel is a Duke Blue Devil studying public policy and Spanish (class of 2026). The Collins family enjoys traveling, hiking, theater, sports (well, mainly Reid), eating (but only healthy foods like fruits and veggies), music, and binge-watching shows together (of course, always restricting screen time per AAP guidelines).
