This kind of medical professional is a fully capable doctor that specializes in treating children exclusively. A pediatrician knows children have particular needs since they’re still growing and maturing, and the professional also knows how to support and nurture this growth and maturity. Additionally, a pediatrician can see your child if he or she is suffering from any common illness or a minor injury, or if your child needs a well-child visit, a prescription, an immunization, or a referral to see a specialist. All this is why a pediatrician is the most qualified professional to tend to your child’s general health.

Dr. Julia Barriga MD PA or one of her fellow pediatricians can do all that for your child and be his or her regular pediatrician. There are a lot of benefits of making one of our pediatricians your child’s regular pediatrician, like how the doctor can see your child for same-day sick visits, annual physicals, and even video visits via the internet! With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Barriga is more than capable of looking after your child, and so are the pediatricians that train under her. And if you’re an expecting mother looking for a future pediatrician, one of our pediatricians would be delighted to be that for your child, and can offer prenatal services!
