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.

They feel comfortable communicating with her and they work together to come up with a plan regarding their health care needs.

We have been seeing South Lake Ped (Now Pediatric Assoc) for several years and I would highly recommend them especially their nurse practitioner Erin. She takes the time to listen and reassure my teenage daughters. They feel comfortable communicating with her and they work together to come up with a plan regarding their health care needs.

very professional.

Dr Zegarra-Bustamante is by far the best doctor my girls have been seen by, she listens to our concerns and explains everything in an easy way we can understand both Spanish and English, very professional, always very friendly. I drive an hour just for my kids to be seen by her and it’s always worth it 😊

This is the good pediatric clinic to visit.

This is the good pediatric clinic to visit. But, I think when the nurses taking the children’s vital signs ( including how tall? How much weight? ) should inform right away the children’ s guardians, not just for their own reports. The name tags are needed, because we confuse who they are?

Great service.
