I am beyond excited to announce that Eugene Pediatrics has been recognized as the “Top Performing Pediatric Clinic” for Oregon Quality Metrics for both of the Coordinated Care Organizations in our region! In addition, we were the top performing clinic among all primary care clinics for Trillium’s CCOs in the entire state of Oregon over the past year!

What does this mean? At a high level, it means our team is the best in our region at partnering with our 13,000 patients and families in taking care of children’s physical and mental health. We’re the No. 1 clinic for kids!

In greater detail, it means that our team has outperformed all other clinics in doing what the Oregon Health Authority challenged medical clinics to accomplish: getting our babies, toddlers and older kids in for their wellness checks; keeping kids of all ages updated on their vaccines; screening and caring for depression and other mental health concerns in teens; screening and referring for cigarette and substance use; and detecting and managing high blood pressure and diabetes.

These accomplishments could not happen without the dedication to kids that shines in the daily work of every person at Eugene Pediatrics. We are united in our desire to give every child the most loving, reliable and outstanding care possible every day. I am so proud of my team!
