With their continued support, along with Valspring's, we are positioned to carry that work further – reach more children, more communities, and connect more families to the quality pediatric primary care they deserve,” commented Roberto Palenzuela. “This investment translates directly into expanded access – more locations, more providers, and better resources for the families and communities we are committed to serving. The work Pediatrica is doing today is laying the foundation for a healthier next generation, and in doing so, easing the burden on our healthcare system for generations to come – this investment accelerates continued, impactful change.”
