Pediatric Care Associates

All of us at PCA wish our patient families a long and enjoyable relationship. We believe in approaching our patients as unique individuals with their own unique needs. We strive to inform and educate our families about their children's health issues. We believe that each child's medical needs are to be met by a thorough understanding of the child and family's background, medical history and individual circumstances. We strive to achieve a high-quality pediatric practice experience by focusing on the following three elements:

1) Communication between the patient, family, physicians, and office staff: Effective communication starts with our support staff of well trained nurses, medical support staff, and receptionists who will answer your phone calls and help point you in the right direction. The physicians make themselves readily available to further assist with your medical issues. Our physicians will be available both on the phones and for appointments to help you handle your family's medical questions or issues.

2) A willingness to work together to support the patient's best interests: Practicing pediatrics requires that physicians, parents, and children work together in a supportive manner. We will approach clinical problems as a team- including the physician, the family, and the patient. Working together also means being flexible on various issues from both the physician's standpoint and from the family's standpoint.

3) Sound professional medical expertise and decision making:
The physicians at Pediatric Care Associates take special pride in studying the newest research and changes in pediatric medicine. In fact, practice standards, medications, and treatment options are constantly changing from year to year. We will strive to use this continuous medical education to guide our families to make the right medical decisions for their child's situation.
