Columbus Pediatric Associates Our mission is to provide excellent medical care as we partner with parents in raising our future. Our goal is to promote wellness - one child at a time.

At Columbus Pediatric Associates, our mission is to provide excellent medical care as we partner with parents in raising our future. From birth to 18 years, children change so much physically, emotionally, intellectually and socially. We understand children are not “small adults.” We value the importance of preventative medicine, as well as, providing quality care when illness does occur. We appreciate the trust our families put in us, and we are privileged to be a part of their children’s lives.

Today we recognize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose leadership in the Civil Rights Movement helped end legal segregation and advance equal rights for all Americans.

His work reminds us of the importance of fairness, respect, and equitable access to care for every child and family we serve.

Wishing everyone a meaningful MLK Day.

Columbus families, scheduling a sick visit just got easier.

You can now book sick visits online, so you can find an appointment time that works for your day without having to call and wait on hold.

If your child wakes up with a fever, sore throat, ear pain, or you are simply not sure if they need to be seen, online scheduling helps you get on the calendar quickly and keep things moving at home.

Use the online scheduling option on our website to choose a time, then come in and we will take it from there.

When the weather keeps your family inside, it’s the perfect time to build connections in simple ways.

Try reading together under a warm blanket, cooking or baking a new recipe, creating an indoor scavenger hunt, snuggling up on the couch with a warm cup of hot chocolate or enjoying a favorite board game.

These small moments feel cozy but also build skills like communication, problem-solving, and patience.

If your teen’s thumb scrolls faster than your morning coffee pours, it might be time for a social media reset.

While smartphones and social apps are part of modern life, too much time online can interfere with sleep, schoolwork, friendships, and mental health. Experts recommend creating clear limits for screen time, such as turning off devices during homework, setting “no phone” windows before bed, and designating phone-free zones like the dinner table or bedroom.

For younger children, the AAP suggests limiting non-school screen use, but for teens, it’s about establishing balanced digital habits and ensuring screens don’t replace sleep, activity, and face-to-face time.

Not sure if your teens' social media or screen habits are appropriate? Call our office today to schedule an appointment to speak to one of our providers.

Flu season is here.

Kids often show symptoms like fever, body aches, cough, sore throat, and sometimes vomiting or diarrhea. Most cases can be managed at home with rest and fluids, but call our office if your child is working hard to breathe, isn’t drinking well, or isn’t improving after a few days.

Fun fact: kids are actually more likely than adults to spread the flu because they shed the virus longer.

Flu vaccines are still available and still one of the simplest ways to protect your family. Call today if your child still needs theirs.

A quick reminder before your next visit to Columbus Pediatric Associates.

If you already have an appointment scheduled, you can now complete your pre-check-in online ahead of time. This is where you can update the necessary forms, confirm important details, and help our team have the most accurate information when you arrive.

Completing pre-check-in before your appointment can make check-in faster and helps your visit start on time, especially on busy clinic days.

Look for the pre-check-in option through our online system before your visit. If you run into any issues, give our office a call and we will help you get it sorted.

As the year comes to a close, it’s a great time to celebrate with family safely and in ways that are fun for children.

Consider a “noon year’s eve” countdown for younger kids, a mini family dance party, a sparkling juice toast, or a balloon drop at home. Crafting a memory jar or drawing a resolution can also help children reflect on the past year and look forward to the next.

We would love to hear how you and your family celebrate NYE. Post in the comments below.

Teens often experience headaches, stomachaches, and other common discomforts due to stress, growth, hormones, or diet.

Most minor complaints can be managed with rest, hydration, and over-the-counter remedies. Keeping a symptom diary that tracks frequency, triggers, and severity can help both families and providers identify patterns and guide treatment.

However, persistent, severe, or worsening symptoms, vomiting, dizziness, or unexplained weight loss require medical evaluation.

Call our office if your teen’s symptoms are concerning or impacting daily life. Same-day sick visits are available, and early evaluation helps prevent complications.
