Visit our pediatric office

Pediatric Associates offers a warm, kid-friendly environment designed to ease anxiety and make every visit comfortable for both children and parents.

Behavioral health

About 3 times more boys than girls are diagnosed with ADHD. See how our pediatrician can determine a treatment plan to help your child lead a happy and healthy life.

Virtual visits

Not every health concern needs a trip to the doctor’s office. With the KidzDocNow app, your child can see a pediatrician with a video appointment right from the comfort of home.

After hours & weekend visits

We’re here for the sniffles, fevers, and “uh-oh” moments—even on evenings and weekends.

Incredible place, beautiful, clean.

Incredible place, beautiful, clean. Organized, no wait, treated with such care, very thorough exam. Dr. Sofia answered all our questions, gave us great advice and direction for my son and we felt heard and seen, she didn’t rush us or dismiss my concerns. The front desk staff helped me set up the app, book my appt and the times the Dr is available works with my schedule late afternoon early evening and Saturdays. We can’t wait to go back!

turned something that could’ve been stressful into a really positive experience for him.

I had an appointment for my son at 8:55 a.m., and we arrived at 9:07 a.m. due to traffic. We waited about five minutes before they called him in. The staff was amazing—super efficient but never made us feel rushed. They checked his height, weight, blood pressure, did a vision test, and took his blood. Every single staff member who interacted with him gave him a sticker, and you could see how proud and happy it made him. It turned something that could’ve been stressful into a really positive experience for him. Dr. Saltzman was wonderful; he examined my son thoroughly and answered all of my questions. We were completely done within 30 minutes of arriving. Highly recommend this office!

Aida, my favorite nurse, loves my boys.

I have been coming here from the time my boys were born. Aida, my favorite nurse, loves my boys. Every time she sees them, her smile brightens the room. My boys have a special bonding with Dr. Sredni and her. I’m forever thankful for all their love.
