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.

Hear from our families

my daughter felt very comfortable.

Today Ms. Kendra saw my 13 year old daughter in the Lake Placid office & my daughter felt very comfortable. We absolutely loved Dr. Ragu & we knew we were going to start seeing someone new. Kendra was great. She was knowledgeable, professional & attentive to my child. Thank you Kendra. We are delighted to have you as our new provider.

My son really connected with him, he is on the spectrum, so this was so important for me.

We are so happy to meet Dr.Rogers. what a wonderful addition to the practice. My son really connected with him, he is on the spectrum, so this was so important for me. the staff has always been wonderful, but Gwen is the best front desk coordinator ever. She is a breath of fresh air ! I do wish that the " millennium " group would focus on communication on the phone, it should not take an hour to navigate what your patient needs to convey. I sure miss Gwen's cheerful voice and efficiency if I had to call.. (tho this takes a load off of her day) :)

I’m super hopeful I found my children a permanent pcp.

10/10 would definitely recommend! In my 14 years of motherhood, this was by far the best experience at a pediatricians office I have had with my child. From start to finish, everyone was so kind and seemed genuinely happy to be there. Dr. Rogers listened and answered my questions and didn’t make me feel rushed. I can’t say enough good things about our first experience here and I’m super hopeful i found my children a permanent pcp.

I love Dr Raghuveera.

I love Dr Raghuveera. He’s being the pediatrician of my doctor since she’s 5 years old and she’s 17 years old. She just have an appointment and was sad because soon he will no take care of her like all this year. We really appreciate Dr Raghu and all his staff that is being wonderful. One anecdote that I have is my daughter was little and she was very sick Dr Raghu make sure at 8pm still, that Walgreens have the medication he want my daughter to start.

Grechell A.

The service was exceptional.

My child got sick unexpectedly (as they do) and they were able to see me within an hour. The service was exceptional. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and kind. I even called for a doctor note for school and they were able to send it directly to the school. Couldn’t be happier with the service.
