We know that your choice of a pediatric team is an important one.That is why our team of board certified physicians and highly skilled clinical staff continually strives to exceed your expectations in the care of your child. When you choose a physician who is certified, you can be confident he or she meets nationally recognized standards for education, knowledge, experience and skills to provide high quality care in a specific medical specialty, above and beyond basic medical licensure.
Additionally, as part of St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center—and as a partner of Phoenix Children’s Hospital—our providers and staff are proud to have access to the latest and greatest medical treatments, services and specialties. DHMG Pediatrics offers comprehensive care for children.
Services include:
Soon-to-be-Parents
We encourage soon-to-be parents to schedule a free prenatal visit to meet with our pediatricians. This visit will allow parents to become acquainted with us and our care philosophy, tour our office, and ask any questions regarding the birth of their baby and what to expect after delivery/adoption.
Breastfeeding Support/Lactation Services
Our pediatricians promote breastfeeding and are able to diagnose/treat breastfeeding problems in mothers and babies. Our physicians observe the breastfeeding method and make recommendations for both mother and baby to support sustained breastfeeding. There is ample time to provide hands-on support and education during the one-hour appointment.
Asthma Counseling
DHMG Pediatrics at St. Joseph’s offers asthma counseling to children needing specialized asthma care. Children are assessed and their caregivers are provided with a treatment plan to ensure medications are given as prescribed. The children—along with their caregivers—learn when and how to treat an asthma flare-up. Our pediatricians review asthma triggers and demonstrate the use of medications.
Our department is a highly respected training site for medical students and resident physicians who are a part of the growing programs at Creighton Medical School and Phoenix Children’s Hospital. Our pediatricians work to provide exceptional care for their patients while assisting in the training and coaching of future talent as well. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that the next generation of pediatricians is fully prepared to provide the best possible care for the families within the Phoenix metropolitan area.
