As a parent, nothing matters more than the health and well-being of your children. Part of ensuring that your children are given the resources they need to thrive involves regularly visiting a Missouri pediatric care provider. By bringing your child to routine wellness visits and promptly seeking care when your child displays symptoms of being sick, you can offer them the resources they need to lead healthy lives.
At Central Ozarks Medical Center, we recognize the profound importance of finding a pediatric care provider that you like as well as trust. We are honored to provide pediatric care at the Lake of the Ozarks and in Richland, MO. We strive to do everything we can to earn – and keep – our clients’ trust.

Pediatric Care at the Lake of the Ozarks
Beginning with their very first heartbeat, you want to be confident that your children receive the best of everything, including the best medical care. At Central Ozarks Medical Center, our pediatric services revolve around two primary components: child-focused healthcare and parent education.
Child-Focused Healthcare
Children are at a very vulnerable stage in their lives. They rely almost totally on the care provided to them by their parents or guardians. When their children are in need of medical care, parents are also in a vulnerable place – they rely heavily on their trusted healthcare providers to help them care for their children.
At Central Ozarks Medical Center, we recognize the immense trust parents place in us when they bring their child to see our pediatric care provider in central Missouri. Continually earning that trust is our top priority. We are proud to offer a variety of child-focused health services to serve our pediatric patients:
- Well-child exams
- Diagnostic tests
- Follow-up of chronic problems
- Sports screenings
- Evaluation and management of growth
- General health management
Parent Education
As a pediatric care provider, the amount of care we can provide to our child patients. While we can (and do) provide them with the best care we can while they are with us, these patients obviously spend a significant amount of time not under our direct care and supervision. We make up for this by striving to educate the parents and guardians of our pediatric patients. Once they know what to look for and what to expect, parents and guardians are able to better care for their children by quickly responding anytime anything seems unusual.
