🎉 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝟐𝟑 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬! 🎉

Twenty-three years ago, Dr. Timothy Williams started Plant City Pediatrics with just a handful of patients and a folding table for a desk. Through his dedication and love for children, it’s grown into the largest pediatric practice in Plant City, now serving our community with six wonderful providers and an incredible team.

“Children are a gift from the Lord.” Psalm 127:3

Thank you for trusting us with your families for 23 wonderful years!

Happy Boss’s Day, Dr. Williams!

Today our team at Plant City Pediatrics celebrates a leader whose heart for children goes far beyond our practice. Dr. Timothy Williams not only cares for our patients with excellence and compassion, he also pours his heart into helping children around the world through Dreams United Ministries and the orphanage in Mwanza, Tanzania.

Because we know his heart for missions, our staff joined together to give a monetary gift toward his ministry. One of our team members also presented him with a beautifully engraved chest featuring the Dreams United Ministries logo ~ a reminder of the lives being touched through his vision and compassion.

Thank you, Dr. Williams, for leading with kindness, faith, integrity and purpose. Your vision inspires us to serve others.
