Pediatrics

The Pediatrics Department at Kaiser Permanente San Jose Medical Center is dedicated to providing quality medical care and service to children and adolescents from birth to 18 years of age. Our pediatric staff is highly trained and experienced in pediatric and adolescent medicine. View your doctor’s home page to learn about various conditions and procedures as well as having access to email us, schedule appointments, see your test results, and much more. Learn how to manage your family’s health online.

To receive personalized and high-quality care and service, we strongly encourage patients and their parents to choose a personal pediatrician or pediatric nurse practitioner.

If your child does not have a personal Pediatrician, please choose a personal Pediatrician for your child online today.

The Pediatric department is organized into a 3 module system (A,B, and C). This allows for better continuity of care of patients. Your personal physician works closely with his or her associate physicians within and outside the module. This assures that if you cannot be seen by your personal physician, you will be seen by his or her associates and any problems or issues your child has will be conveyed to your physician.

Get to know your doctors and browse recommended information and helpful online tools on My Doctor Online. From your doctor’s home page, you can also:

• manage (schedule, view, cancel) appointments
• refill prescriptions
• check test results
• email your doctor
• view preventive health reminders and past visit information.

Many of the forms for school, sports, or medication administration can be handled by our Release-of-Medical-Information (ROMI/Medical Secretaries) department.

If you can fill out as much of the form as possible before submission, then feel free to send it as a PDF in an email that includes the patient’s  name, medical record number, your name and relationship to the patient, and how you would like the form returned (via email or pick up from ROMI’s office), to sjo-roi@kp.org.

As examples, two of the many kinds of forms that ROMI can help fill out include the physician report for Child Care and School Entry.

If any of your forms require a recent full physical within the previous 12 months, but your child is overdue for one, then please be sure to schedule one in advance, by going online.
