Specialties | DIVISION OF AMBULATORY MEDICINE
Introduction
The Division of Pediatric Ambulatory Medicine provides the administrative
structure and support services for the ambulatory activities of the medical
specialists in the Department of Pediatrics, and the Divisions of Pediatric
Neurology and
Pediatric Dermatology.
Multiple services are coordinated in the
Adolescent Center, the
Diagnostic Center, the
Epilepsy Center, the
Cerebral Palsy Center, the
Brachial Plexus Palsy Center, the
Neurofibromatosis Progam
and the Kidney, Lung, Liver, Heart and Bone Marrow
transplantation programs.
The division also oversees the operation of a pediatric multispecialty office
at Missouri Baptist Medical Center
(MBMC), where many pediatric medical and
surgical subspecialists see ambulatory patients.
The division coordinates support services for more than 30,000 ambulatory
visits annually to the office suites at St. Louis Children's Hospital and more
than 10,000 visits to the MBMC office. Some of the division’s patients also use
the services of the Procedure Center and the Infusion and Dialysis Center of
St. Louis Children's Hospital. Patients receive specialized diagnostic services
through the Washington University Division of Pediatric
Radiology, the
Heart Station, the
Pulmonary Function Laboratory, the Sleep Laboratory, the EEG
Laboratory, and the clinical chemistry, immunology, hematology, microbiology
and virology laboratories.
Provide exceptional specialized ambulatory services for children and
adolescents. We believe that excellent care for patients with complex or
unusual conditions is founded on close communication and collaboration
between our specialists and primary physicians. We urge parents to arrange
visits to our specialists in cooperation with their child's primary
physician. Improve the health of children and adolescents.
Thus, division faculty pursue scholarly interests, including clinical
research, basic research and medical education. The division also works to
create an environment that can provide valuable learning experiences for
trainees and an opportunity for patients to receive care from specialists
who are working to understand the causes of childhood diseases and how to
improve diagnosis and treatment.
