Get Your Child Evaluated by a Pediatrician

Not every symptom has an obvious cause. A pediatric evaluation can help determine what may be affecting your child and whether treatment, monitoring, testing or additional care is appropriate.

Dr. Krishnan provides diagnosis and management of acute and chronic pediatric conditions and can coordinate appropriate referral services when specialized care is needed.

Same-Day Pediatric Sick Visits

When your child is sick, you may not want to wait for a routine checkup. Contact DFWPMA Corpus Christi to ask about same-day pediatric appointment availability.
