Pediatric care at Kaiser Permanente's Vandever Medical Offices in Allied Gardens, San Diego, includes the practice of Leslie A. Sauer, DO, a board-certified pediatrician at 4405 Vandever Avenue, 92120. Sauer earned her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree and has maintained active pediatric practice for approximately 25 years, treating children from infancy through adolescence within the Kaiser system. The DO designation reflects training in osteopathic medicine, which integrates standard pediatric diagnostics with musculoskeletal assessment techniques and a whole-body approach to childhood development and preventive care. Pediatric dental coordination for young patients at this Allied Gardens campus connects to providers in the broader area, including BRSH+FLSS Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics in San Carlos for age-specific oral health management. Sauer's clinical scope at Vandever covers well-child visits, immunization scheduling, developmental milestone tracking, acute illness management, and referral coordination to pediatric subspecialists within the Kaiser Southern California network. The Vandever campus houses family medicine, internal medicine, laboratory, and pharmacy departments alongside pediatrics, allowing parents to consolidate their own medical appointments with their children's visits under one roof. Allied Gardens families in the 92120 ZIP access the Vandever office via the Interstate 8 corridor at Waring Road, and the clinic draws pediatric patients from the surrounding sub-communities of Grantville, Del Cerro, and San Carlos. Vision screening during well-child exams identifies conditions requiring optometric referral, and families needing comprehensive pediatric eye evaluations outside Kaiser connect with providers including Allied Gardens Family Optometry on Waring Road. Kaiser Permanente Vandever accepts Kaiser HMO and Medi-Cal managed care plans, and Sauer's pediatric panel operates within the same integrated electronic health record system that links outpatient departments to the inpatient services at Kaiser Zion Medical Center on Zion Avenue.
