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.

All the doctors have been wonderful with her.
I have been taking my daughter to Pediatric Associates since she was born 2 years ago. All the doctors have been wonderful with her and are very good at communicating what is happening with her and answering my questions.

it's great because she’s also multilingual which is helpful when my parents come with me to the appointments, makes them feel more at home.
I always have a good experience at the Ft Lauderdale location. My baby has seen a couple of different physicians there and now more consistently Dr Blythe and it’s great because she’s also multilingual which is helpful when my parents come with me to the appointments, makes them feel more at home. The nurse is always sweet. The staff does everything in their power to smoothly get that busy waiting area streaming through. The doctors and APRNs are very familiar with referral processes and how to get navigate insurance. I also have used twice their virtual visits for minor emergency advice and it is a godsend for skipping ER and Urgen Care centers or having to make an appointment for an in person visit unnecessarily. I highly recommend this office. .

this specific location has always went above and beyond to be accommodating and show compassion.
One of the absolute best pediatric offices around. Pediatric associates gets a bad reputation but this specific location has always went above and beyond to be accommodating and show compassion. As a mom to a complex medical needs child I have found myself more than once in dire predicaments and Marisol and Bernard are truly the greatest front desk staff. The providers are also so caring when my daughter was going through difficulties the drs made time to give me calls on weekends, lunch breaks, and after hours to check in and make sure any of her needs were met. Over the years I have interacted with just about every staff member and provider and they have always made us feel more than comfortable in their care being that the office can sometimes feel like our second home. Pediatric associates in itself can have its downfalls but this office truly does so much for its clients on the backend.

everyone was very kind, concerned, and accommodating.
My husband called scheduling to make two day of sick appointments but the person he spoke with scheduled them for a week later, accidentally. He was told to show up at the office at 9am the day he called only to find out that the sick boys were not on the schedule. The receptionist, office manager, and doctors all worked together to get my sons seen as quickly as possible. One of my so sons even vomited into a trash can in the waiting room and everyone was very kind, concerned, and accommodating. Thank you!
