Where Compassion Meets Technology for a Healthier You
MedPeds is a nationally recognized, innovative, and forward-thinking Patient-Centered Medical Home serving adult and pediatric patients since 1999. We adopted Electronic Health Records (EHR) in 2004, and piloted the first online Patient Portal in 2007. Since then, we have continue to push medical technology boundaries! Our founding provider, Dr. Seth Eaton, and Practice Administrator, Janet Gerber-Salins are regular presenters at national conferences about improving healthcare through innovation.
In 2024, we enthusiastically began using HIPAA-compliant Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve the accuracy of our medical documentation! AI assists providers by “listening” to the discussion between providers and patients in the exam room. At the end of the visit, AI presents the provider with the full narrative and updates relevant fields in the progress notes. AI also helps us more accurately file documents faxed to us by specialists, identifying the patient, and placing the document in the appropriate folder in our EHR. In Q4 of 2025 we will pilot the use of AI to better handle incoming phone calls to our office. We hope this will reduce wait times and help patients request appointments, referrals and refills 24/7.
In 2013, MedPeds was awarded the prestigious HIMSS-Davies Ambulatory Award for healthcare IT! While we maximize healthcare technology to improve your experience, we never forget that importance of that down–to-earth human touch.
In 2009 MedPeds was recognized by NCQA as a level 3 Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH). We were recertified in 2012 and continue to follow all NCQA guidelines.
Our Providers may have different schedules. Not all providers are available all hours the office is open. If you need to pick up forms or have other non-appointment requests, we suggest you call by 4:00 pm Mon through Fri, or by 10:00 am on Saturday to be sure someone will be here.
Call us at (301) 498-8880. Please keep in mind that our advice nurse is not available on weekends, however, we do have an on-call physician available for emergencies.
Our Lab hours have been expanded to better accommodate our patients who have lab orders from a MedPeds provider. We cannot accept orders from other providers.
