PM Pediatric Care is the largest pediatric urgent care network in the country.

We have a robust training program for pediatricians with any background, including procedural training, radiology interpretation, and evidence-based approach to illness/injury. PM Pediatric Care is set up like an ED but in a private practice setting with x-ray and lab services on site, great support staff, specialty consultations when necessary (i.e., plastic surgery, orthopedics), and high acuity with a diverse case mix.
