“We are excited about the collaboration with Valley Health knowing that it will bring the availability of additional services to the children we have been serving,” Lambernedis said. In addition to improved connections to specialized services such as behavioral health, dentistry, optometry, pharmacy and WIC, she added, “We will even be able to offer qualifying patients access to a Sliding Fee Scale Discount Program to help with the cost of care.”

The new Valley Health pediatrics center specializes in care for infants and children through young adults. It accepts patients by appointment and can also accommodate walk-in patients.
