Do NOT take your children here. When my son was 2 he was in the ER 3x in one week do to breathing issues. When I would take him to Ped Assoc. the Dr said he was fine- it was just a common cold. I asked about allergies & he said it was not possible to test for allergies @ such a young age- nor did he have asthma. I took him to an allergy DR. without this office's consent- my son DID have a severe allergy which was inflaming & closing his airways & aggravating his ASTHMA. Recently I took my newest child here as I had not changed pediatricians (my error) & my new son had been sick for over a month with high fever, coughing, listless- the same dr said he had a cold nothing else. Finally I took him to Ecare & we found out he had pnemonia! When I informed my dr of this he said that was not the case & my child should not have been treated for this illnes. Thanks to the DR @ Ecare my child is finally well & acting like a 2 yr old should! I would NOT suggest Ped Assoc.

I have taken my 4 children here for 7+ years, the oldest being 7.The office staff can be a bit abrasive, but Dr.'s Kimble and McCaffey are always willing to spend the extra time with us. I have had after hour concerns that are promplty answered and that is a huge plus!

I have been steadily employed and paying for insurance premiums for the last 15 years of my life. Recently, my company down-sized and I lost my job. My child, that has special needs, was placed with the Colorado Children's Health Plan (CHP ) Which this doctor's office accepts, but will not see my child now because they are not accepting new CHP patients - according to office staff - because CHP does not pay very well. These doctors are not about taking care of people - they are about making more money!
