At Prairie Health and Wellness, we offer advanced pediatric care from birth through high school graduation. This includes well-child visits to support optimal growth and development, treatment of acute illness or injury, and treatment of chronic illness. Our care is individualized and customized to each child and family’s unique needs. Parents and caregivers often have the best understanding of their child’s healthcare needs. Our team works to collaborate, empower, and partner with parents in the care of their children.

 Our integrative and functional approach includes considering a child’s nutritional status, the health of the microbiome, immune function, genetic influences, environmental exposures, and emotional and psychological health. This approach relies on a detailed understanding of each child’s unique biochemical, genetic, environmental, and social-emotional makeup. We rely on treatments that are evidenced-based which means they have been studied and deemed both safe and effective. Our treatments include using a variety of diagnostic and laboratory testing to identify the underlying causes of illness as well as utilizing nutritional supplements and pharmaceutical treatments when necessary. Prairie Health & Wellness also offers Chiropractic Services with Anne Zauderer DC and MNRI Services with MNRI Core Specialist Julie Davis OTR/L.  Both of these specialties have proven to be highly beneficial for our pediatric patients.
