Bringing Expertise and Compassion to Hospitalized Children in Oklahoma City

Dr. Mark C. Dimski is part of the esteemed team of pediatric medical professionals at INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City. With a specialization in providing comprehensive medical care to hospitalized children, Dr. Dimski brings a wealth of experience and dedication to his role at the hospital.

INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center provides high-quality, life-saving pediatric services for the sickest of the sick children in the state and has done so for more than three decades. Yet, despite countless success stories and eternally grateful families, the pediatric medical staff at INTEGRIS Health often referred to themselves as the “best-kept secret in Oklahoma.”

Having graduated with a Medical Degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine in 2016, Dr. Dimski further honed his skills through a residency in pediatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) College of Medicine, where he received the prestigious Chris E Smith, MD Award for Excellence in Hospital Medicine in 2019.

As a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics (FAAP) and board certified in pediatrics by the American Board of Pediatrics, Dr. Dimski exemplifies a commitment to excellence in pediatric care.

Beyond his professional achievements, he is deeply engaged in volunteer work that benefits both local and global communities. Starting in May 2011, Dr. Dimski became involved with Straw to Bread, an organization focused on poverty alleviation in southwestern Kenya. His work with Straw to Bread encompasses clinical, educational, and economic initiatives aimed at promoting health and sustainability in the Nyakach Plateau.

In December 2021, Dr. Dimski began volunteering as a therapy dog handler for the Human Animal Link of Oklahoma Foundation. In this role, he provides animal-assisted therapy at various nonprofits and community events, contributing to animal welfare and community well-being.

In September 2022, Dr. Dimski joined the Summer Soiree Committee for ReMerge of Oklahoma County. This organization focuses on human rights, and as a committee member, he helps plan and execute the annual Summer Soirée, an event that had its inaugural run in 2023 and is now held annually to benefit the community.

With his exceptional medical expertise, compassionate care for hospitalized children, and dedication to serving others through volunteer work, Dr. Mark C. Dimski is a valuable addition to the pediatric medical staff at INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center.
