My Story
A Lifelong Commitment to Children's Health
Dr. Rosemary Megalaa is a board-certified pediatric pulmonologist and sleep specialist practicing in Charlotte, North Carolina. Her career has been shaped by a single conviction: that every child deserves to breathe freely and sleep soundly — and that achieving that requires both clinical excellence and genuine human connection.
After completing her medical training and fellowship in pediatric pulmonology, Dr. Megalaa developed a particular passion for pediatric sleep medicine — a field she recognized as profoundly underserved. She has since built a practice that bridges both specialties, helping families navigate complex respiratory conditions and sleep disorders with clarity and compassion.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Megalaa is a sought-after speaker and educator, bringing her expertise to medical conferences, community events, and professional development programs. She believes that informed families and well-trained clinicians are the most powerful tools in pediatric health.
She is based in Charlotte, NC, where she lives with her family and remains deeply connected to the community she serves.
