Excellent, timely, and compassionate care for children
We believe that preventive care involves more than sharing medical and educational information. We help families understand their health care. We offer resources to help them start and maintain regular preventive care.
Prevention is one of the hallmarks of pediatric practice, including such diverse activities as newborn screenings, immunizations, and promotion of car seats and bicycle helmets.

Our family medicine providers at New London Hospital (NLH) also practice pediatric care. This allows family members to have the same provider if they choose.
We provide services at NLH and at Newport Health Center. Our board-certified pediatricians work in collaboration with Dartmouth Health Children’s.
