A child’s digestive system is closely connected to growth, nutrition, development and behavior, which is why it deserves care designed specifically for kids. Dakota Pediatric Associates evaluates and manages a wide range of GI issues including digestive, nutritional and liver concerns in infants, children and teens. Our pediatric GI specialist treats conditions such as reflux, constipation, chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, celiac disease, feeding challenges, eosinophilic esophagitis and inflammatory bowel disease. Care may include lab work, imaging, endoscopy and colonoscopy, along with close coordination with your child’s pediatrician, dietitians and other specialists to support the whole child.

For many families, especially those traveling long distances for specialty care, telehealth offers a convenient way to stay connected with our pediatric gastroenterologist. Virtual visits take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform and work well for follow-up appointments, reviewing test results, adjusting medications and coordinating treatment plans. Families can join from a smartphone, tablet or computer, and your child must be present on camera so the doctor can observe and interact with them. Because some concerns require a physical exam or testing, our team will schedule an in-office follow-up if needed. Telehealth visits can be booked by phone or through the patient portal.

When your child wakes up with a fever, sore throat, earache or upset stomach, you want answers quickly. Dakota Pediatric Associates offers same-day sick visits so your child can be evaluated and start feeling better as soon as possible. Our providers take the time to review symptoms, perform a thorough exam and explain the diagnosis and treatment plan in clear, easy-to-understand terms. Parents appreciate that their child is seen by a provider who knows their history, so there is no need to repeat the same story at every visit. We recommend calling early in the day to secure an appointment that fits your child’s needs.

Our physicians believe every child deserves care that is personal, unhurried and thoughtful. Our team includes a skilled general pediatrician and a board-certified pediatric gastroenterologist, giving families access to both everyday pediatric care and specialized digestive expertise in one convenient location. Parents often tell us they appreciate that our providers take the time to listen, ask meaningful questions and remember details from previous visits. Rather than taking a volume-driven approach, our physicians focus on getting to know each family and explaining every option clearly so parents can make confident decisions. Supported by attentive nurses and a friendly front desk team, our providers are committed to making every visit a positive experience.  Learn more about our providers, their expertise and schedule an appointment today!
