Pediatric Physicians, PC – Happy, Healthy, Safe

Just for fun, we made an “Ask us anything” style video, starring two of our docs — a little goofy, but hey we’re pediatricians! We’ll see if we can rope some of the other docs into doing more of these next. If you’ve got questions you want answered, drop them in the comments below!

Camp Strong4Life is an exciting overnight camp where kids can be themselves and have a blast! There’s archery, rock climbing, high-energy dance classes and cooking challenges — all to help kids learn and practice the healthy habits they need to stay Strong for Life!

It’s for kids between ages 8-12 years with a body mass index over the 85th percentile, and will be held this summer from July 14-19. For more information, visit their website or email CampStrong4Life@Choa.org.

C & A Counseling in Roswell is hosting a weekly course to help teens learn mindfulness techniques to relieve stress and anxiety.

Mindfulness fosters confidence in emotional regulation — how to not let negative emotions rule. Techniques learned include meditation, breathing modulation, and centering in a fun, open, and relaxed environment. These kinds of techniques can really help teens (and parents!) feel less stressed, more focused, and more in control.

For more information, call C&A at 770-856-4494. Classes are scheduled to start March 19, and run on Monday afternoons weekly. You can also email Christie@CandACounseling.com.

In 2006 we opened our second office, in Alpharetta, and that’s when we last updated our logo, colors, and letterhead — the look of our practice. We’ve got some big, exciting changes coming up (spoiler: we’re NOT moving either office, but Roswell will have a major renovation), and it’s time for a fresh new look.

But first, have you wondered where the current logo came from? The image was part of a photo of me with my then-two-year-old daughter. We thought it captured the spirit of our practice — a gentle hand, holding the hand of a child. The focus of the image is on the child, like the focus of our specialty. The hand of the parent is there to guide and protect his child, while our role as your pediatrician is to guide and protect your family.

Dr. Roy and daughter, 2006

My daughter and I have grown a lot since 2006, and our practice has grown too! We now have nine doctors at our two offices (and one more joining soon!). But what hasn’t changed is our committment to offering top-quality, evidence-based medical advice to help keep our practice families happy, healthy, and safe.

2019 — I look about the same!

We’ll soon be renovating our Roswell office, and we’ve got a great new design and a new logo that reflects growth, happiness, and renewal. If you’ve been by the office lately, you might have gotten an early peek at the new logo on one of our staff member’s new jackets. But for now, I’m feeling a little nostalgic, and I wanted to be sure to thank Sophie for her years as our logo model. You’ve grown so much, and I couldn’t be more proud.

We know children don’t always get sick when it’s convenient. That why we’ve helped open our Kids Time Pediatrics after-hours care centers. They’re staffed by genuine, board-certified pediatricians, and can help take care of the same acute illnesses we see in our offices—sore throats, fevers, coughs, and many other common complaints. The Kids Time sites take the same insurance as our offices do, usually at the same co-pay (please call ahead to confirm the exact rates for your plan. A few plans insist you pay an urgent care co-pay, but most do not.)

Kids Time Alpharetta and East Cobb offices are usually open from 6-9 pm weekdays, and  1-7 pm on Saturday and Sunday. To confirm their hours and locations, visit www.kidstimepeds.com.
