Our vision

One-on-one care

The vision of Arizona Pediatrics is to provide one-on-one care for our patients. We recognize that every child and family has unique needs in terms of a physician’s time, medical approach and emotional responsiveness. Establishing Arizona Pediatrics has given us the flexibility to meet those needs while providing the highest quality care.

We enjoy giving families the reassurance that we know their child by name and history when they walk into our office. The joy of pediatrics is in watching patients and families grow.

How we work

Preventative medicine, and being reachable

Arizona Pediatrics is focused on preventative medicine, providing appropriate anticipatory guidance to parents and families to raise healthy children.

We understand that childhood illnesses are common and worrisome to parents. It is our goal to offer same-day appointments for acutely ill children so they can be seen in a timely manner, and to make sure parents can speak to a qualified staff member or a doctor during office hours.

Phone calls received after office hours are returned by the physician on call — so you get to discuss your concerns with a physician who is familiar with your child’s health history.

What that looks like

In practice

  • Care from birth through age 18 — one practice, the whole way
  • Same-day appointments for acutely ill children
  • Walk-ins welcome, though calling first means less waiting
  • An in-house respiratory therapist, on site
  • Our doctors speak English, Spanish and Russian
  • All AHCCCS plans, medical insurances and non-insured patients
  • Two offices — Phoenix and Chandler
  • A complimentary Meet the Doctor visit

Complimentary

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.

Taking new patients
