The influenza vaccine is in!! 

Yes, it's September, and we already have our influenza vaccine in stock!  Please call our office now to schedule a nurse appointment for your child to get the influenza immunization. We will have Flu Clinics on most Saturday mornings during September and October. Appointments are required for Saturday Flu Clinics.  These clinics book quickly, so call now.  For the 2016-2017 season, only injectable influenza vaccine will be available.  The CDC has decided to not release the nasal Flumist this year.  Glendale Pediatrics recommends flu vaccine to all children 6 months and older.  The very first time that a child receives the flu vaccine (under 8 years of age), it is recommended that he or she receive two doses of the influenza vaccine, separated by aminimum of 4 wekks.  Feel free to call our office if you have any questions.

At Glendale Pediatrics, our skilled team of pediatricians offers comprehensive medical care for infants, children and adolescents. Conveniently located in the heart of Glendale, CA, next to Glendale Adventist Medical Center, our helpful staff works hard from first contact to make every visit to our office positive.

Whether it's your child's first visit to our office or just a routine well–child checkup, we strive to make sure you and your child are always comfortable and informed. We take the time to talk with parents to help you understand your child's needs, and we equip you with the knowledge necessary for promoting a lifetime of optimal health and wellness.

To help you get acquainted with our practice, we have provided the important information you need on our website. Please browse these pages to learn more about our doctors, services, office details, commonly asked questions, new patient forms and patient education library.

Our pediatricians in Glendale believe exceptional care is obtained when there is an on–going relationship between the doctor and patient. We want to be lifelong partners in your child's health. We achieve this goal by listening to your questions and concerns, and educating you on how to promote a healthy lifestyle for the entire family.

When you choose Glendale Pediatrics, you can feel confident that you are teaming with knowledgeable, compassionate doctors who have dedicated their careers to child–focused health care. Please do not hesitate to contact our office with questions or concerns. Our pediatricians and staff look forward to meeting you and your family.

We look forward to helping you care for your child. On this website we have included some general information about our practice, the physicians who work here, our lactation services and medical information that we hope you find helpful. The information on this website does not replace the expertise of a physician.

Our goal is to partner with you.

Our eight physicians have different styles and personalities, but we each share a common philosophy of medicine. Our goal is to partner with you in the care of your child. We strive to take the extra time required to teach you about the different options you have in the care of your child and help guide you through the different stages of your child’s life.

We function as a team.

We see patients from birth through 21 years of age. We function as a team and care for one another’s patients, including visiting and examining newborns in the hospital. For Well Child visits we try to maintain continuity of care for your child with one physician. For Sick Child visits our priority is to see sick children as soon as possible, and you may see one of the other physicians if your regular physician is not available. When calling to schedule your appointment, please know that we schedule our time with you based on your needs. If you have multiple questions or concerns to discuss with the doctor at a well visit, or you have a complicated sick issue, please let us know so we can schedule additional time to best serve you.

Our nurses and staff members are here to support and assist you.

Our office has two waiting rooms, one for well children and one for sick children. During office hours we have nurses whose primary responsibility is to answer your medical questions. The nurses can often help you decide whether or not an appointment is necessary, what your treatment options are, and what symptoms to look for. No one, even experienced parents, should feel embarrassed about asking us questions, no matter how trivial they may seem. Our nurses and staff members are here to support and assist you as we share your child’s journey through the years.
