our mission.
At Blackmon Pediatrics, our goal is to come alongside children and their parents as they grow and develop from birth all the way through college (age 21). We aim to partner with our patients and their families by focusing on the health of each child and his/her family system as a whole, not only physically, but also mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually.

what we do.
Pediatric Care.
We could not be doing anything else. A love of children and families have led us to pursue a style and scope of practice which echos our own family. Diverse, busy, love-filled. We continue to embrace our choice to work with children. We understand children are not simply small adults but face unique medical and behavioral challenges. The joys of participating in the growth of children and families continue to inspire.
We strive to facilitate and elevate the health of our community's children. Using our experience and training in pediatric health and development, Blackmon Pediatrics join families in raising healthy children. Our goal is to unite families in health and love through education, application of modern and experienced pediatric healthcare principles and authentic relationships with families.
Medical Missions.
With the devastation of Hurricane Katrina came an unexpected desire to reach beyond our traditional geographic boundaries. While serving those of New Orleans both Dr. Greg, Dr. Abby and Molly developed a persistent desire to help others in distant regions. This has led to medical mission trips to Costa Rica, Haiti, and with the addition of Taylor Scott, the Sudan. We are continually dreaming, planning, recruiting, collecting in anticipation of our next mission field.
