Beyond her professional achievements, Dr. McHugh has touched our hearts with her genuine kindness and ability to make every patient and family feel like an extension of her own.

As Dr. McHugh relocates to pursue new opportunities and spend more time with her husband Matt and their growing family, we know she will continue to inspire and make a difference wherever she goes. We will miss her joyful spirit, her shared love for the Nittany Lions, and the warmth she brought to our practice. Dr. McHugh, thank you for everything you have contributed to JDC Pediatrics. You will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we wish you and your family the very best in this exciting new chapter!

Are you expecting? Congratulations! We are now accepting newborns into the practice.

The next time you come into our office for an appointment, you may notice some new ways that we are communicating with you and sending out information.

Recent measles outbreaks have many families concerned. Most of the people who have gotten sick were not vaccinated against measles. This is a stark reminder of the importance of making sure your children are fully vaccinated.

Birds in the United States can get sick with avian flu (also called H5N1 bird flu or avian influenza). But can it affect your family?

Certain ADHD medications are still facing significant shortages. If you are experiencing difficulties in locating your child's ADHD medication, this information may help.

Whether it's for sports, summer camp, daycare, or a learner's permit, your child will most likely need a physical form filled out by us at some point. We’d like to let you know about a change in how we will be giving completed forms back to you.

Before you pick up the phone to call us for an appointment you may want to check “Is Your Child Sick” on our website's home page. You will find helpful advice on managing your child’s symptoms.

We are now back to seeing well visits AND sick visits at BOTH of our locations. Please take note of whether your appointment is at our Enola office or our Camp Hill office when you schedule. And, as always, your appointment reminder will indicate the location as well.
