Learn About Our
Pediatric Services
From birth to 18 years of age, we’ve got you covered.
From birth to 18 years of age, we’ve got you covered. Our team of pediatricians and nurse practitioners are here to help as your child grows, with services from birth through the age of 18. Our new pediatric wing, opening this fall, will expand services and make it easier to get care in one place. We promote your child’s health through:
-
- Newborn exams
- Well-child visits/physicals
- Immunizations – See the schedule here.
- Treatment of illnesses and infections
- Management of chronic diseases like asthma, obesity, and allergies
- Hearing and vision exams
- Dental screenings and referrals to our Dental team
Adolescent and Teen Care
In addition to the core services above, we offer teen-specific preventive care and screenings:
-
- Sports physicals
- Healthy-weight, nutrition and activity counseling
- Screenings for lead and anemia
- Cholesterol screening
- HIV screening starting at age 15, or earlier based on risk
- Tuberculosis screening and treatment for latent or active TB
- Behavioral health support with referrals to our Behavioral Health team or a psychiatrist
- Referrals to trusted pediatric specialists when needed
When our new pediatric wing opens this fall, many of these services—including behavioral health visits—will be available in the same location for easier access.
WIC Services
Our WIC team is here to support your family with nutrition education and healthy food benefits. We provide personalized services for pregnant women, postpartum women (up to six months after delivery), breastfeeding women (up to one year postpartum), infants, and children up to age 5. WIC offers monthly benefits for nutritious foods, breastfeeding support and breast pump assistance, and referrals to health care and other resources to help your family thrive. These services will also be available in our new pediatric wing, giving families easier access during visits. Learn more about our WIC Services here.
Telehealth
Telehealth visits are a great option to meet with a Sam Rodgers provider from the comfort of your own home. However, not all medical needs can be addressed during a telehealth visit. We use a technology called Doxy.Me for our telehealth visits. For more information, please visit our Telehealth page or call to discuss with a member of our team.
To request an appointment, call (816) 474.4920. A member of our scheduling team will work with you to identify the best match for your clinic location, provider, and more.

Protect Your Child With Essential Vaccines
Vaccines are one of the most effective ways to protect your child from serious, preventable diseases. Up-to-date vaccinations can safeguard your child against illnesses like measles, polio, and whooping cough. Learn about recommended vaccine schedules, find a provider near you, and ensure your child’s health and well-being.
