Children have different health care needs than adults. As they grow through each stage of childhood, the medical issues they face change. Pediatricians understand this better than any other type of doctor. They are specialists in all aspects of children's health and are the only physicians who spend an additional three years of training after medical school focused just on kids.

Our seven pediatricians have nearly 100 years of combined experience and are:

• Board certified in pediatrics
• Members of the American Academy of Pediatrics
• Affiliate professors of pediatrics for the University of Washington School of Medicine, who are trusted with training other doctors

The Pocatello Children's Clinic provides

• preventative care and immunizations of well children
• treatment of common childhood illnesses
• diagnosis and management of chronic medical conditions
• coordination of care with other health care specialists - including those at Primary Children's Medical Center
• hospital care for seriously ill children

We provide family-centered care. While our parents find that they like and trust all of our pediatricians, they often identify one as their family doctor.

Visit us before delivery so you can get to know your new baby's doctor. Once your baby is born, one of our pediatricians will meet with you each day at the hospital. And if there is an emergency, our pediatricians are experts in caring for sick newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
