General Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine
Whole-Child & Teen Health — From Newborns to Young Adults.
Well-child visits, vaccinations, acute care, and adolescent wellness — all delivered with family-centered compassion.
The General Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine Service offers age-appropriate, evidence-based care for the entire pediatric lifespan. We provide newborn hospital visits, well-child checks, immunizations, developmental milestone tracking, school and sports physicals, acute illness management, chronic disease coordination, and teen-specific services such as mental health care, reproductive health, and eating disorder management. We offer extended evening and weekend hours, tele-pediatrics, and a nurse advice line to ensure access when families need it most.
