always being available when I’ve needed them.

I have been coming to pediatric since I was a child. And now I bring both of my babies to see Dr. Beveridge. Not only is he knowledgeable and passionate, he knows his community and our needs. I love that my kids are taken care of by a provider that looks like them and understand the cultural aspects that comes along with the care we need. If we don’t see Dr. Beveridge we see Lofton and he is a breath of fresh air. Between this practice having multiple providers that are of African American heritage, and always being available when I’ve needed them, I would always recommend this location and practice. I’ll take the drive. Continue the great work and thank you guys for what you do.

I’d still choose this specific location even if Dr. Beveridge was unable to see either child.

Our overall visit was a 10/10 November 13, 2025. I saw some new faces. Everyone was knowledgeable and pleasant to speak with. Dr. George Beveridge is my kids doctor. I’d still choose this specific location even if Dr. Beveridge was unable to see either child. When we are asked if we would like to wait to for Dr. Beveridge, we definitely wait. Thank you to all of the staff. I appreciate each and every one of you.

Have been coming here for 23 years.

Absolutely amazing team of staff and doctors on board. Have been coming here for 23 years. As a preteen myself with Dr Fablaus and now for my child with Dr. Beveridge. Dr. Beveridge has been a god send in more ways than one for my child and a true life saver. Always on point when it comes to assessment skills and 10 steps ahead with any and every diagnosis.

she always makes us feel welcome and comfortable.

As a parent, I can’t thank Dr. Maxwell at Pediatric Associates enough for the care and kindness she shows my child. From the moment we walk into the office, she always makes us feel welcome and comfortable. She takes the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and never rushes through our visits. What stands out most is how gentle and patient she is with children — my little one actually enjoys going to see her! You can tell she truly cares about her patients and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re healthy and happy. The staff at Pediatric Associates are also wonderful — friendly, professional, and always ready to help. The office is clean, organized, and runs so smoothly. As a parent, it’s such a relief to know my child is in such good hands. I highly recommend Dr. Maxwell to any parent looking for a pediatrician who truly cares.
