Welcome
Welcome to The PediaMag Welcome to the Spring 2021 issue of The PediaMag. It has officially been one year since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have learned so much and come so far in a year. We have a COVID-19 vaccine and the country is working diligently to get as many People vaccinated as possible. It is also Spring allergy season and now is the time to look at how we diagnose allergies and determine your treatment plans. And as the temperatures are getting warmer, the days are getting longer, and the sun is shining. Don’t forget sunscreen for the whole family when you are enjoying the outdoors. From food insecurity to empowering children to participate in their health care, and much more, The PediaMag has information and suggestions to help keep your families safe, healthy, and happy. Have an idea or suggestion for a topic you would like to see covered in a future issue of The PediaMag ? We want to hear from you. Send your thoughts to us by private message through our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ahnpediatricalliance.
About Us: Pediatric Alliance was formed in 1996 when eight individual practices joined together to provide quality health care throughout Southwestern Pennsylvania. Over the years, Pediatric Alliance grew to be the largest physician-owned group pediatric practice in the area. In 2019, Pediatric Alliance joined with Allegheny Health Network to allow expansion of resources in order to stay abreast of the latest technology and advances in health care. Our board-certified pediatricians offer primary care to children and adolescents in 16 different office locations including two specialty care offices for allergy, asthma, and immunology and pediatric endocrinology. We are proud to offer personalized, patient-centered care to patients from birth to 21 years of age. We strive to meet your family’s pediatric needs, provide convenient access to care, and build strong relationships with families to maximize your child’s health.
