Did you know that JDC Pediatrics has always been an independent, physician-owned practice? Many of the medical practices in our area are owned by hospital systems, which means the physicians of those practices are employees of the hospitals, not owners of their practice. JDC physicians have admitting privileges and provide medical care to newborns at Harrisburg Hospital, but JDC is neither owned nor is it operated by UPMC or any other hospital system. Maintaining our independence is important to us as it gives us the ability to focus on patient care, not corporate priorities, and be closer and more engaged with our community and in the lives of our patients.
Here at JDC Pediatrics, we recognize that each patient and family is unique, and care is always individualized to meet the wellness goals of each child. Our goal is to partner with families to help raise children to be successful, well-adjusted, happy and healthy young adults. We look forward to being your child’s medical home and welcome you to the JDC family!
