Phoenix & Chandler · Birth through 18

Your child’s doctor knows their name.

Arizona Pediatrics is a community-based practice caring for newborns, infants, children and adolescents. Same-day appointments when your child is sick, walk-ins welcome, and three board-certified pediatricians who have been looking after families here for years.

Complete care for every stage

From the first newborn visit to the last teen physical

Comprehensive office-based care for well-child visits, immunizations, behavior and development, and the routine childhood illnesses that always seem to arrive on a Sunday night.

Sick today?

We keep room in the day for children who wake up unwell

Every effort is made to provide same-day appointments for sick visits — especially for young infants and children. Please call us to schedule rather than walking in, so you are not waiting to be worked into the schedule with an unhappy child.

  • Same-day appointments for acutely ill children
  • Walk-ins are welcome, but calling first means less waiting
  • Speak to a qualified staff member or a doctor during office hours
  • After hours, your call is returned by the physician on call

Meet the Doctor — no charge, no obligation

Our doctors welcome parents to come in and meet them and the office staff — free of charge, with no obligation. It is a chance for your child to get comfortable with the office, and for expectant parents to have their questions answered before the baby arrives.

“A pediatrician is not merely a child’s physician, but one who evolves into the child’s mentor and advocate.”

The joy of pediatrics is in watching patients and families grow.

In their words

Families who have been with us for years

Dr. Arambula has been my kids doctor since newborn. He always takes the time to listen my concerns and offers solutions. We love Dr. Arambula!

My child is 16, we have been coming to this office since my daughter was a week old. Dr. Wendy and her team have been so amazing the last 16 years. I may add Dr Wendy even came to the hospital when my child was born to do a check up on her. They literally go above and beyond for their patients. I will forever recommend them to new parents or people trying to find a new pediatrician.

I personally love the pediatricians here and the staff… The pediatricians were always very attentive and provided me with reassurance and guidance. I never felt rushed and most importantly my child always felt cared for and happy. She loves how fun and joyful her doctors were… My daughter was a patient for over 10 years.
