Our Holistic Approach to Pediatric Care
At Great Destinations Pediatrics, we take a holistic approach to children’s health—one that incorporates your child’s symptoms and then looks beyond to support your child’s overall wellness. By blending trusted pediatric medicine with integrative care, we help families create healthy habits around sleep, nutrition, play, screen time, and mental wellness. Every visit is an opportunity to care for the whole child—body, mind, and spirit—and to partner with parents in raising happy, thriving kids.
