Resident physicians are doctors who have completed medical school training and are spending three to four additional years learning the specialty of pediatrics or internal medicine-pediatrics. Residents are always under the supervision of an attending physician. Our inpatient services include newborn service, consultations and admissions to Tampa General Hospital and All Children's Hospital. As part of integrated services we offer an Internal Medicine-Pediatric clinic that assists with the transition to adult medicine care.

Our focus is on establishing a trusting partnership with you and your family so that you can make informed decisions about the health and well-being of your child.
