Welcome!

Welcome to the Division of General Academic Pediatrics at the University of Florida. We foster the health and well-being of infants, children, adolescents, and families.

Our mission is accomplished through the provision of:

  • Teaching evidenced-based clinical pediatrics to prepare future community and academic pediatricians
  • Research and scholarship to expand and enhance the science and knowledge of general pediatrics
  • Delivery of high quality, accessible, safe, reliable and efficient health services
  • Child advocacy by serving low income, disadvantaged, at-risk, and children with special health care needs

With six locations to serve you, our pediatricians are ready to assist with child health check-ups, immunizations, acute care, chronic care, and referrals to pediatric subspecialists.
