About Our Office

Founded by the visionary Dr. Robert Sweeney, Navarre Pediatric Groups have continually served the Michiana community for more than forty years. The group grew in the 1990s with the addition of Dr. Michael Hudson, and in the new millennium with Dr. Karen Davis, Dr. Olivia Tack, Dr. Daniel Kinney and family nurse practitioner, Sherri Biever. In September 2010, Dr. Charisse Johnson joined our group practice in downtown South Bend. We have two conveniently located locations in South Bend and Granger, and our physicians work with both community-based hospitals and nationally recognized children's hospitals in Chicago, Indianapolis and Grand Rapids.
