About

I specialize in pediatric primary care. I have always wanted to be a doctor, even as a child. My mother is a doctor, which was unusual in her day, and I know that was an influence on me. I discovered pediatrics during medical school and felt I had found my calling. Watching my patients progress from infancy to adulthood, and helping to keep them happy and healthy along the way is truly a privilege.

My patients can always count on me to provide extraordinary care because they know I deeply care about each and every one of them. Being a pediatrician is not just my job, it is a part of who I am.

My little something extra
I am an artist and particularly love to paint. I continue to take classes and explore new mediums and subjects!

    Dr. Busenlener has seen my children since they were little babies up until now, and she has been the number one doctor that I have ever trusted in my entire life with my children. She is so understanding. She has a heart and she actually cares about my children. She has always cared about them, and I truly appreciate every single thing that she has done to take care of my children.

    The provider was great, saw my son in a timely manner, took care of him immediately, and called back with all results immediately, and called in the medications, had no problems at all, very pleased with the service. Everybody was very professional, got him in the same day. So I give the provider a 10, the nurses a 10, and the clinic a 10, very clean, prompt, and on top of things. Thank you.

    My experience at LCMC was by far one of the best. Every one was attentive and helpful. My son was checked in and called to the back immediately. Once we arrived in the room, the nurse was actually waiting for our arrival, ready to get down to the reason we were there. I was extremely pleased with the service

    Yes, I really liked this provider, this doctor. I think they did a really good job, really reminded me of how doctors used to be and I wish still were sometimes. They did give us what we needed for our daughter that we haven't been able to get from other providers, which was really nice and really needed. So I would say most of all, my experience was a 10 out of 10 with this provider. Thank you. Bye-bye.
