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.

Keeping kids healthy in Marianna
At Pediatric Associates Chipola River, our mission is to deliver the best and most comprehensive medical services to all patients and their families. We have multiple clinicians on staff, which allows more flexibility for scheduling appointments. We also offer a 24-hour Medical Advice line, virtual telehealth visits, and so much more.
Pediatric Associates Chipola River is located between Jackson Hospital and Chipola College, next to Paramore's Pharmacy on 5th Avenue. We are also less than 5 minutes away from Golson Elementary School and the Jackson County Early Childhood Center.
When you need immediate care, call Pediatric Associates Chipola River. We have appointment time slots reserved specifically for same-day patients and will do our best to accommodate you - because kids rarely, if ever, get sick on schedule.
When you can't make it to our office, Pediatric Associates Chipola River has other options available to you. Telehealth visits allow you to speak to a provider virtually from the comfort of your home - all you need is a phone, tablet, or computer to get started. Or you can call our 24-hour Medical Advice line to ask a triage nurse about your child's symptoms. All telehealth providers and triage nurses are specially trained to provide virtual care.
Pediatric Associates Chipola River also offers in-house lab services. Whether your child needs a urinalysis, blood work, strep test, or something else, we can quickly get the results you're waiting for. All lab tests are administered by trained pediatric staff who specialize in caring for kids.
In addition to participating in the annual Jackson County Baby Shower, Pediatric Associates Chipola River hosts a Newborn Basics Class every quarter as a free service to the community. Designed specifically for expectant parents, this in-person course covers numerous topics to help prepare for your new arrival.
