Board-certified pediatrician Dr. David A. Steele, MD sees patients at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center in San Diego's Allied Gardens, 4647 Zion Avenue, 92120. He graduated from Saint Louis University School of Medicine in 1995 and holds certification through the American Board of Pediatrics, with more than 25 years of clinical experience in general pediatric medicine. His practice extends to Kaiser Permanente La Mesa Medical Offices at 8080 Parkway Drive, and acute illness or after-hours needs connect to walk-in resources in the surrounding area — Perlman Clinic La Mesa in Grantville accepts patients of all ages for same-day evaluation when the primary care office is at capacity. Clinical treatment data shows elevated case volumes in autism spectrum evaluation, childhood constipation, conjunctivitis, pneumonia, allergic rhinitis, eczema, anxiety disorders, attention deficit disorder, and otitis media — a case mix reflecting the full breadth of outpatient pediatrics. The Zion Avenue campus in Allied Gardens positions his practice within the residential core south of Interstate 8, where mid-century homes along Waring Road, Orcutt Avenue, and Greenbrier Avenue house the multi-generational families that anchor Kaiser's pediatric patient base in the 92120 ZIP code. Families managing nutritional and growth concerns benefit from the broader Allied Gardens wellness infrastructure, and registered dietitians at Maven Precision Nutrition build pediatric meal plans tailored to developmental and medical dietary requirements. Saint Louis University's medical program emphasizes Jesuit educational principles and clinical training in high-acuity urban settings, a foundation that translates into comfort with complex case presentations in a diverse patient population. His dual-campus presence across Allied Gardens and La Mesa gives families in eastern San Diego two access points for pediatric continuity under the same board-certified physician.
