Join us for a Meet-and-Greet.

Our low-pressure, casual meet-and-greet will let you tour our modern, comfortable office and meet several of the members of our team of pediatric professionals (Pediatricians, Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, and Lactation Consultants). 

We will discuss our office philosophy, share a look into our office and provide anticipatory guidance for the upcoming birth or adoption.

Our Hospital Affiliations

 

Affiliation means our pediatricians have privileges to care for you newborn in the hospital  We ARE NOT a practice owned and operated by a hospital.  We are a small, locally-owned, and operated practice.  Only our providers care for our patients, never a "covering physician."  

Our pediatricians are affiliated with the following hospitals and can see your baby in the newborn nursery at:

  • Lehigh Valley Health Network & Lehigh Valley Children's Hospital, Cedar Crest & Muhlenberg Campuses

  • St. Luke's Hospital & University Health Network, Allentown & Bethlehem Campuses

Be sure to inform your obstetrics team and hospital staff that you would like to have Children's HealthCare oversee your baby's care.

Your baby will receive comprehensive, coordinated care from your child's first day of life.  Your newborn will have a thorough head-to-toe assessment in your hospital room daily, so we can discuss our findings one-on-one with you.  

Our Board-Certified Providers

Our team of Children's HealthCare Pediatricians and Nurse Practitioners are all board certified. All of our pediatricians are International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC), Certified Breastfeeding Specialists, Certified Lactation Counselors, and members of the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine.  No matter what your feeding method of choice, we will be there to support you and your family from birth.

 
 

Additional In-Hospital Services Offered

We visit local hospitals daily to see any newborns on our service.

We perform circumcisions on our patients, at your request, both in the hospital and in our office. Our physicians are also able to diagnose and develop a plan of care for newborns with tongue-tie while your baby is still in the hospital setting if deemed necessary for feeding issues.
