Urgent Care for Kids Expands Care Network in Houston,

HOUSTON, TX, July 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Urgent Care for Kids, a leading pediatric healthcare provider, is excited to announce the expansion of its network in Houston, Texas. With Urgent Care for Kids’ recent acquisition of 11 primary and urgent care clinics from Pediatrix Medical Group, formerly NightLight Pediatrics Urgent Care, the company is now able to serve even more people in the Houston community, providing high-quality, convenient healthcare to children and families.

Since its inception in 2011, Urgent Care for Kids has been on a mission to reinvent the delivery of pediatric care. Urgent Care for Kids prides itself on its commitment to meeting the needs of busy parents. Convenient extended clinic hours make it easier for parents to see a doctor for their children after hours and traditional urgent care clinics.

“We are proud to expand our presence in Houston and continue our partnership with the community,” said Brian White, CEO of Urgent Care for Kids. “With these additional clinics, we are now the largest provider of urgent care services for families in the Houston metropolitan area.”

With 23 clinics currently operating in Texas, Urgent Care for Kids is well positioned to meet the growing demand for pediatric health care services. The clinics offer a wide range of services, including everything you would expect from an urgent care clinic, as well as telehealth visits, while working closely with local pediatric providers. The clinics coordinate with a child’s “medical home” to ensure continuity of care and comprehensive follow-up after treatment of acute medical issues.

“We are excited to bring the same level of exceptional care we have provided for the past decade to these new pediatric clinics,” added Dr. Moore, Chief Medical Officer. “Our dedicated team looks forward to expanding our patient-centered care to more children in Houston with compassion and expertise.”

As Urgent Care for Kids expands its network of care, they remain committed to providing exceptional pediatric care. With their continued dedication to quality and convenience, they are poised to positively impact the health and well-being of children and families throughout Houston.
