Our mission is to provide compassionate, world-class care to patients while supporting families throughout their child’s hospital stay. We strive to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care with an emphasis on open communication to ensure our patients and their families feel cared for and nurtured.
Our multidisciplinary team is equipped to provide comprehensive care for seriously ill newborns and address complications of prematurity and other issues, such as respiratory, craniofacial, endocrine and gastroenterological conditions.
Our neonatal physicians provide comprehensive, family-oriented care for healthy-term and near-term newborns from delivery through discharge, as well as education and support for parents as families prepare to leave the hospital with their new addition.
In the past 40 years, Pediatrix Medical Group has successfully grown from a single specialty practice to a national medical group dedicated to women's and children's services. Today our MFM and OB/GYN hospitalist program is the largest in the nation, with 205 MFM specialists and 225 OB/GYN hospitalists providing care in more than 300 hospitals across 20 states.
