CoxHealth Pediatric Specialty Center

Many of our pediatric specialties are offered by CoxHealth-employed physicians, while a few others are available through our partnership with St. Louis Children's Hospital (SLCH), a hospital recognized in the top 10 percent nationally by U.S. News & World Report. SLCH is part of BJC HealthCare and our collaboration is made possible through the BJC Collaborative. The BJC Collaborative was created by a handful of health systems to pool resources and enable members to expand programs and services, improving care and access for patients in our local communities.

This relationship allows us to offer additional services close to home, helping families avoid traveling to other cities to get the care your children need. Specialists from St. Louis Children's Hospital visit Springfield on a regular basis to treat patients, as well as offering care via telemedicine for certain conditions. Referrals for specialists are required. Visit with your CoxHealth pediatrician to learn more.
