Employer

Pediatric Associates

Since 1955, we've believed everyone deserves a trusted healthcare partner. What began as one pediatric practice has grown into the nation's largest family primary care organization—not because our goal was to become bigger, but because more families needed access to high-quality care.

Pediatric Associates Family of Companies serves millions of families through hundreds of neighborhood clinics across seven states (AZ, CA, FL, NJ, NY, PA, and TX), while continuing to deliver the same relationship-centered care that inspired our founders.

Today, we're building the future of healthcare by combining compassionate providers, innovative technology, and community-based care to help children thrive from infancy through adulthood. We're also committed to the well-being and growth of our clinicians and offer day 1 benefits, relocation support, and programs such as the Advanced Practice Provider Fellowship, Medical Assistant Externship, First Year Out program for residents, and the Skillbridge program.
