Pediatric Medicine
Pediatrics is the medical specialty concerned with the physical, emotional and social health of children from birth to young adulthood. Pediatric care encompasses a broad spectrum of health services, ranging from preventive health care to the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic diseases.
PeaceHealth Medical Group pediatricians are available seven days a week to provide you access to the health care you need, close to home. Our pediatricians offer:
- Convenient locations throughout the Eugene and Springfield area with weekday, evening and weekend hours.
- Direct access to the area's only pediatric surgeon, Dr. Garret Zallen.
- Benefit from regularly visiting specialists from OHSU's Doernbecher Children's Hospital.
- PeaceHealth Medical Group pediatricians also work as hospitalists at Sacred Heart. This means the providers you see in the clinics are the same providers you'll see at the hospital should your child ever need a higher level of care.

Pediatricians at PeaceHealth Medical Group understand that children aren’t simply small adults and that many factors can affect their growth and development. Children change rapidly, and they must be approached with an appreciation for their particular stage of physical and mental development.
