Founded in 1977 by a San Diego Naval Regional Medical Center physician, La Mesa Pediatrics on Fletcher Parkway has grown into a five-physician, three-nurse-practitioner pediatric practice serving East County families near Sharp Grossmont Hospital. The practice holds a leadership position in ADHD diagnosis and treatment across San Diego, pairing behavioral assessment with medication management under the same pediatric roof, and after-hours acute pediatric needs route through Sharp Grossmont Express Care on the adjacent Grossmont campus. A 2013 partnership with Borrego Community Health, a federally qualified nonprofit community health center, integrated government-funded pediatric patients into the same physician panel as privately covered children, ensuring continuity of care across payer types. All physicians hold Rady Children's Health Network affiliation through Children's Physicians Medical Group (CPMG), and newborn hospital visits begin at Sharp Grossmont Hospital and Sharp Mary Birch Hospital within the first days of life. Behavioral health referrals for adolescent anxiety, depression, and learning-related concerns extend the practice's ADHD expertise into the broader mental health system, with counseling coordination through La Mesa providers such as A Counseling Collective. The practice's highest-complexity services include confidential adolescent reproductive health counseling under California minor-consent law, neonatal circumcision, and sports-clearance physicals requiring baseline EKG interpretation and concussion-protocol documentation.
