About Us

At General Academic Pediatrics, we take pride in providing an exemplary medical home to all children and have a passionate commitment to helping underserved and medically complex children.

Located within CHKD's Children's Pavilion, General Academic Pediatrics is dedicated to the highest standard of pediatric care. All of our physicians have met stringent requirements set by national certification organizations. 

Your child's care will be provided by a pediatrician who specializes in child development and health promotion.

Our primary goal is to provide expert outpatient and inpatient clinical care and to address the physical, emotional, educational, and social needs of our children and their families. We strive to show excellence as academic and clinical teachers, while mentoring residents, medical students, and students of other healthcare disciplines.

The leadership and research skills provided in professional organizations on a local, state, and national level, as well as our community service, challenge General Academic Pediatric faculty and staff to provide the best pediatric healthcare now and in the future.

Reach Out and Read

Reading to your child at an early age is important. That's why we participate in the Reach Out and Read program, offering age-appropriate books to children up to 5 years of age at each well-child visit.
