Serving our community in Essex Junction, Vermont for over 45 years.
Covid vaccine available!
Whether you are expecting a newborn, have recently moved to our area, or are looking for a new medical home for your children, we thank you for trusting us with your child’s health. We welcome new patients starting at birth through college age.
At Essex Pediatrics, our goal is to provide the highest quality medical care, based on the best available scientific data tailored to the unique values, goals, and concerns of each patient and family. An important part of our approach is childhood vaccinations, as routine immunizations have repeatedly been proven to be one of the safest, simplest, and most effective ways to keep your children and community safe and healthy. Given the importance of childhood immunizations, as well as for the safety of all our patients, we will not be accepting new patients who have no plans to give their children any immunizations.
Essex Pediatrics coordinates referrals for their patients to a diverse group of private practice therapists. In addition to individual counseling, we offer therapy groups, parent consults, and our new Caregiver Information Series.
Life is busy. Juggling your day-to-day schedule and staying on top of your family’s health care can be a challenge, but our patient portal can help. Access your child’s medical records and pay your balance 24/7 from your home, office or smart phone.
To make our practice accessible to all families in the community, we accept most insurance plans. including Vermont Medicaid. Because each insurance policy is different, it is important to contact your insurance company if you have any questions regarding your benefits.
Be confident that you are treating your child’s pain or fever with the correct dose of medication. We can guide you here on how much Motrin or Tylenol to give, based on your child’s weight. Benadryl dosing is available as well.
Our Tools & Resources page provides you with reliable online resources, recommended reading, and helpful tools for parents and teens.
