Dr. Jill Marie Eddings, MD

Dr. Jill Eddings was born in Lafayette, Louisiana, but spent most of her childhood in Houston. She attended Kingwood High School and graduated from Texas A&M University in 1999, where she majored in Biomedical Science and minored in Psychology. She graduated from Baylor College of Medicine in 2004 and completed her residency training at Baylor College of Medicine-affiliated hospitals (including Texas Children%u2019s Hospital and Ben Taub General Hospital) in 2007. Dr. Eddings became board certified in pediatrics and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics in 2007. She then worked for Texas Children%u2019s from 2007-08 until joining Bluefish Pediatrics in October 2008. Dr. Eddings met her husband at Texas A&M in 1997 and was married in August of 1999. She and her husband, Mark, have two wild and rambunctious boys: Andrew, born in 2003 and Carter, born in 2006. Her children are her greatest joy. She truly feels called to helping children and their families, enabling her to joyfully and freely dedicate time to the care of children other than her own. While she loves all ages, she has a special passion and interest in helping first-time moms, preschoolers, and adolescents. During residency, she was chosen to receive the Outstanding Resident of the Year Award for Adolescent Medicine in 2005-06. She believes in developing real and honest relationships with children (especially adolescents) and their families. Dr. Eddings attends Foundry United Methodist Church, where she is a part of starting a new campus in Cypress, Texas. She hosts and leads a Church Life Group at her home every Wednesday night and serves in the nursery on Sundays. In her spare time, she enjoys scrap-booking, projects around the house, playing piano, musical theater, scuba-diving, and traveling. Most of all, she enjoys chasing and loving on her boys!
