Approach to care

As a pediatrician, Dr. John Whitney is committed to providing the highest quality care while treating every patient and family with respect, empathy, and compassion. He understands that caring for a sick child can be one of the most challenging experiences for a parent, and he strives to ease that burden by offering thoughtful, supportive care. He is dedicated to partnering with families to help children achieve their best possible health and well-being. He is proud to be part of an organization that shares his commitment to improving the health and lives of children.

I support the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) and the California Dept of Public Health's (CDPH) guidelines and schedules on vaccinations to protect your child's and the community's health.
