Our Kansas City Pediatric Offices
Pediatric Services for Kansas City Families
Well-Child Visits
Regular checkups let our pediatricians track your child's growth, development, and milestones, keep
vaccinations on schedule, and give you time to ask questions. Kansas City families can book
well child visits up to 12 months in advance, so it's easy to get the time and provider you want.
Same-Day Sick Visits & Walk-In Care
Kids get sick on their own schedule. We hold same-day
sick appointments every morning on a first-come, first-served basis, and our phones open at 7:30 a.m. For minor illnesses, our Parkville office also runs a walk-in clinic Monday through Thursday mornings, with no appointment needed.
Mental Health
A child's
mental health is as important as their physical health. Our team of therapists, psychologists, and behavioral specialists collaborates with your pediatrician to support children facing anxiety, depression, behavior challenges, and stress from major changes. We also provide in-office psychological testing for ADHD, anxiety, and mood disorders with a referral from our providers.
ADHD/ADD Evaluations
If your child struggles to focus or pay attention, our team can do an initial evaluation to look for underlying causes. If
ADHD is diagnosed, we build a personalized care plan with follow-up visits and medication management to help your child succeed in school and at home.
Chronic Care Management
Managing a complex medical condition means coordinating many appointments and specialists. Our
Patient Care Coordination Team of nurses and staff helps with specialist referrals, care plans, medication management, and communication across your child's care team.
Sports Physicals & Nutrition
From youth soccer to high school football, Kansas City kids stay busy.
Sports and school physicals give our pediatricians a chance to review your child's health and fitness, talk about injury prevention, and clear them to play. Our registered dietitians also offer sports nutrition counseling on fueling, hydration, and recovery.
