Kenmore Pediatric Associates is accepting new patients of all ages, including newborns, children, adolescents and young adults! 

At Kenmore Pediatrics we strive to offer our patients and their families the highest quality medical care from birth, through adolescence to age 22 in a friendly and relaxed office.  We are not only healthcare providers for your children but are also educators for parents.  We try to help parents prepare to meet the challenges they face while caring for their children, whether infants, adolescents or young adults.

Each of our pediatricians is Board Certified by the American Board of Pediatrics, and each of our Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioners is also Internationally Certified as a lactation consultant. In addition, a proud tradition at Kenmore Pediatrics is that every one of our nurses is a Registered Nurse, which is not always the standard in other pediatric offices. Only our Registered Nurses provide  telephone triage for our families and patients. 

All appointments are scheduled to avoid unnecessary waiting, and same day sick appointments are always available. We are open 6 days a week, Monday through Saturday; evening hours are usually available Monday through Thursday. After hours, our pediatricians are on-call 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Kenmore Pediatrics was formally established in 1979. Our office is located at 341 Englewood in the Town of Tonawanda, but is convenient to Kenmore, Buffalo, the Tonawandas, Grand Island, and Amherst. (see map in the "Contact Us" section). Off-street parking has been recently expanded for your convenience.

After consulting with the FDA, McNeil Consumer Healthcare will change the labels on these products to state "do not use" in children < 4 years old. Pediatric cough and cold medicines remain safe and effective when used as directed. Reports of adverse events are very rare, and mostly associated with misuse or accidental ingestion in younger children. The FDA supports the continued use of these medicines for symptom relief in children 4 years and older.
