Internal Medicine & Pediatrics


Springfield Medical Associates Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Practice provides primary care for adults and children.

Our goal is to offer comprehensive and continuous primary health care to all members of the family. In this era of medicine, when physicians have become more and more focused on limited areas of medicine, our practice is a throwback to the time of the traditional family doctor.

The physicians in this office are board certified in two specialties, internal medicine (adult medicine), and pediatrics. We have the same qualifications as traditional internists who care for only adults, and pediatricians who care only for children. This allows a greater continuity of care, so patients who come to us as children can continue to see the same doctor when they become adults; and adults can see the same doctor as their children, fostering a greater familiarity and comfort level with their family doctor.

As primary care physicians, we can help you maintain your health and prevent illnesses, diagnose and treat diseases, and when necessary refer you to the appropriate specialist.
