Pediatrics is the branch of medicine dedicated to working with children. Your child begins seeing a pediatrician at birth and continues until turning 21.
Our pediatric team specializes in monitoring the healthy growth and development of babies, children, and adolescents. This includes monitoring your child to ensure they’re developing properly, helping prevent your child from developing health issues, and diagnosing and treating any conditions that arise.

Our team monitors your healthy child with well-child exams, and until age 5, developmental screenings. These visits also give you the opportunity to ask questions about your child’s development, learn how to help them live a healthy lifestyle, and find out more about your child’s changing needs as they grow older.
Whether it’s an acute illness, chronic condition, or developmental need, our team is here to quickly diagnose your child and develop a treatment plan. This includes referring your child to specialist care or the hospital when needed.
Staying on top of your child’s pediatric visits ensures they get all of their vaccinations on schedule. This prevents your child from contracting a number of dangerous illnesses.
Our team is trained and skilled at working with your child’s school and other care providers to ensure they get the care they need.
