We care for newborns, toddlers, children and teens. We provide inpatient coverage at Willis-Knighton South and the Center for Women's Health for all children including newborns and see only newborns at WK Pierremont Health Center. We are able to admit to dedicated pediatric floors and a pediatric ICU for critically ill children. We provide well child care, immunizations, developmental screenings, and treat a vast array of childhood illnesses. Our clinic also has a laboratory on site for your convenience.
Willis Knighton Health has teamed up with Reach Out and Read, a national program that works with pediatric healthcare providers to share and promote the lifelong benefits of families reading aloud to their children. Expanding language acquisition, increasing listening skills, and building long lasting familial bonds are just a few of the benefits of this program. Our providers educate the parents on the benefits of reading out loud to their children and hand out age appropriate books during the well child visit for the families to keep and to use.
Reach Out and Read is the only national literacy program endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and is available at our clinic.
