Pediatrics
Prevention is one of the most effective forms of healthcare, which is why we recommend regular EPSDT “check-up” visits for every child to assess physical health, nutrition, and developmental milestones while also sharing the latest child-health guidance with families. These visits can double as sports physicals, and we are happy to complete school, camp, and athletic forms at that time. Our pediatricians are also skilled in the evaluation and treatment of sick children, and with MMC’s on-site laboratory, radiology, and specialty services located within the same building, additional testing or consultation is often available the same day when needed. We also offer separate waiting areas for newborns and for children arriving for well visits.
MMC holds accreditation as a Patient-Centered Medical Home, acknowledging our commitment to providing the five fundamental elements of primary healthcare: comprehensive care, patient-centered evidence-based treatment, accessible services, and top-notch quality and safety. Evidence-based care is provided by following best practices and based on recommendations by various accredited organizations including the American Academy of Pediatrics and Center for Disease Control.
MMC Pediatrics is honored to be announced as the winner of Best of Parenting in 2023 in the Rutherford area under the category best Pediatrics.

We take very seriously our responsibility to keep your child’s immunizations up to date. Our nurses are trained to administer vaccines safely and conscientiously.
