🏅 WOW! Huge Congratulations to our incredible Nurse Practitioner, Jessica Sanchez! 🏃‍♀️💪

Jessica ran 26.22 miles — that’s 5 hours straight! 😳 in the Nationwide Children's Marathon! She’s been training for months, and her dedication truly paid off. Even with bleeding blisters on her feet and the heartbreak of losing one of her patients, Jessica pushed through with courage and strength.
We couldn’t be prouder of her resilience and determination ❤️a true inspiration to us all! 💛👏
Let’s all show Jessica some love in the comments for this amazing accomplishment! 🫶

We will be closing Monday afternoon to attend the celebration of life for this little girl. We still cannot believe it. In pediatrics we never expect to outlive our patients, they are supposed to outlive us, always!
If anyone wants to donate to the funeral home for Legaci below is the link.

💔 Our hearts are shattered.

Everyone at South Dayton Pediatrics is grieving the unimaginable loss of 5-year-old Legaci Howard, whose precious life was tragically taken last night due to senseless gun violence.
Legaci’s bright smile and joyful spirit touched everyone who had the honor of knowing her. There are simply no words to express the pain and heartbreak we feel for her family and loved ones.

We send our deepest love, prayers, and support to the Howard family during this devastating time. May our community hold them close and lift them up with compassion and strength.

🕊️ Rest peacefully, sweet Legaci. You will never be forgotten. 💜

We understand a lot of our families may have concerns about recent statements regarding the use of Tylenol and Leucovorin.
There is no scientific evidence that Tylenol taken in pregnancy or given to babies causes Autism.
There is also no scientific evidence that Leucovorin can be beneficial for Autism. While it is generally not a harmful supplement, taking unnecessary vitamins or supplements can become very expensive so we would encourage a discussion with your provider before spending money on these products.
Please message your provider if you have any further questions.

We understand many families may have concerns or questions about the COVID vaccine for the 2025-2026 year. We should have these in stock very soon. There are CDC restrictions on the product which will need to be discussed with the provider. We can very easily do this if you are here for an appointment as well as a flu/covid shot only appointment. We unfortunately cannot send an Rx to a pharmacy for children to receive it there due to the required documentation. Please call us or send a portal message to your provider if you have questions.
