We came to the Pediatric Center straight from the NICU and we've had an great experience with staff and especially with Dr. Edwards. We also love that they have a Rigby and Idaho falls location.

The pediatric center has taken great care of both of my children. My son was born 5 weeks early and Dr. Petit has been so attentive and truly cares for his patients. My daughter had RSV and was hospitalized, Dr. Edwards did a wonderful job with her follow up care and managed her asthma very closely. I would recommend the pediatric center to anyone!

My kids are autistic and we love Dr. Anderson. He has been such a help in getting services for my kids. He's patient and understanding with them. I'm able to ask questions and he has amazing bedside manner. He's the best doctor they have ever had. The nurses are so friendly there and I don't get stressed when we come.

Our family has gone to the Pediatric Center for decades. We have always been treated well by the friendly, knowledgeable staff. We love Dr. Anderson and Dr. Edwards especially, but all the doctors and nurses are fantastic! They are each compassionate and trustworthy. We recommend everyone to the Pediatric Center.

We absolutely love The Pediatric Center! Dr Edwards has been our doctor since our oldest was just a toddler and he is fabulous. Level headed, outside the box thinker and knows when to worry and when to chill.he has never been wrong through all the years with my worries! He caught our daughter's very unusual case of a ruptured appendix. We have also met with several of the other doctors and we love them all!

We love the Pediatric Center! The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the nurses are so knowledgeable and helpful. I have called many times for advice and help, and they are always quick to respond. All my kids see Dr Anderson. He takes time to answer questions I might have and never makes us feel rushed in our appointments. I highly recommend the Pediatric Center!

All my children have been seen at the pediatric center for most of their lives. I have been consistently impressed. My favorite are Edwards and Aughney, but there are many other awesome doctors there. I love that they have hours every day- including Sunday. Would (and often do) recommend highly to anybody looking for a pediatrician.
