MISSION
 To provide wholistic care to pediatric patients with a focus on disease prevention, growth and development, and health promotion.

VISION
       Children are like wet cement (Anne Ortlund, 2002).
Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."
  Molding children is an art and requires work, passion, and efficiency, otherwise it could be too late, and other less desirable factors will mold them.  Southwest Pediatric Care aims to provide care within the context that children have physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs that must be met. Although their DNA or genetic makeup is complete, their personality is still moldable by their environment. SWPC is here to partner with you, parents and guardians, to maximize your child's growth and developmental potential. With 19 years of primary pediatric care, we aim to provide wholistic care to pediatric patients with a focus on disease prevention, their growth and development, and health promotion.
