This practice partners with patients and families in the following ways: 

Yogman Pediatrics has a Parent Advisory Group (PAG) comprised of 10 parents and an adolescent peer partner from the practice. This group includes mothers and fathers of children with diverse medical needs and backgrounds. This group meets with the doctors, clinical staff and the office manager quarterly. Parents provide suggestions for the agenda ahead of time and will weigh in on any issues brought up at the meeting. Topics have included; negotiating with schools around access to special education services, better means of communication with families, practice policy additions or changes, enhancing community engagement, and communicating about updates in pediatric healthcare . Parents often lead discussions as this is an opportunity for the clinical staff to get a sense of the interests and concerns of the families they serve.
