Dr. Clifton M. Vaughan, MD

About Me

Dr. Vaughan really enjoys treating children, helping them get better whether it’s a common cold or something more serious like pneumonia or asthma and, for his teenage patients, acne. He is also an advocate for immunizations to prevent childhood diseases. He believes pediatric care provides a solid foundation for better health in years to come. Family is important to him, and he enjoys camping, hiking, going to the beach, listening to music and entertaining friends. He is also interested in reading, learning languages, soccer, running, biking and swimming. Dr. Vaughan is actively involved in People of Praise, an international Christian covenant community.
