Hospitalist Services

Hospitalists are pediatricians dedicated to continuously improving the care of hospitalized children using evidence-based medicine, quality improvement and research to achieve the best possible results.

Coordinating evaluation and treatment from other pediatric specialists, hospitalists manage your child’s stay from admission through discharge. We work with a team of providers, both locally and regionally, to offer the highest quality of family-centered care when your child’s illness requires hospital admission.
