About Our Clinic

Our Mission

Our mission is to serve the public in providing exemplary and compassionate care while embracing the needs of our patients, employees, and the community. Each individual will receive the same diligent attention regardless of race, religion, or creed.

Our History

Children's Clinic East was established in 1951 by Dr. Luthur A. Beazley, M.D. at 2614 Old Lebanon Road. Dr. William Wadlington, M.D. and Dr. Bill Doak, M.D. joined in 1958 and 1960 respectively.

The clinic has grown over the years and now features 16 Pediatric Board-Certified Physicians and a nurse practitioner. We proudly joined Heritage Medical Associates January 1, 2021.
