We want to be your pediatric partners, providing professional and family friendly medical care for your children, from birth through college.

Children deserve a medical home- a place where their care is accessible, family-centered, continuous, comprehensive, coordinated and compassionate.

As your partner we emphasize preventative care and safety issues as well as social, mental, and developmental well-being.

The doctors and staff of Pediatric Partners strive to provide your children with evidence based, up-to-date pediatric care in a kid friendly environment.

What a Medical Home Does for You:
-Availability: easier access to care when you need it and by familiar providers
-High quality: evidence based medical care with continuous quality improvement efforts
-Central location: Tracks your health information with electronic medical records and keeps information in one place

An important part of being healthy is routine well care.  Well visits address growth, nutrition, safety, development, update vaccines, and more.  Infants and children under 3 years of age have frequent well visits, variable by age.  After 3 years of age well visits are recommended yearly.  We do not like "band aide" medicine, where we only see your child for acute illnesses.  While we recognize that urgent and emergent needs arise, we appreciate when most of your child's healthcare visits are in our office, not at walk in clinics around town.  We want the most opportunities to monitor the overall health and well being of your children, both at routine well visits and at "sick" visits. 

Each well visit we will ask for an updated medical history, a current list of medications, and review vaccinations, so that we can have a complete picture of your health and coordinate care effectively.

What is a Patient Centered Medical Home?

A family-centered medical home is not a building, house, hospital, or home healthcare service, but rather an approach to providing comprehensive primary care.  In a family-centered medical home the pediatric care team works in partnership with a child and a child's family to assure that all of the medical and non-medical needs of the patient are met. Through this partnership the pediatric care team can help the family/patient access, coordinate, and understand specialty care, educational services, out-of-home care, family support, and other public and private community services that are important for the overall health of the child and family. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) developed the medical home model for delivering primary care that is accessible, continuous, comprehensive, family-centered, coordinated, compassionate, and culturally effective to all children and youth, including children and youth with special health care needs.
