Pediatric Care for the Entire Child
Healthcare Built for Your Lifestyle
We know you’re busy—we’re parents, too. That’s why we offer tools like access to nurses via text message, help by phone, extended appointment hours, telehealth visits, and more.
Locations that Feel Like Home
It is so convenient to schedule and take our three kids to their annual well child checkups and six-month dental cleanings on the same day, with back-to-back appointments, at one location. From scheduling to the actual appointment, Families First takes great care of their patients! Thank you!
I have a medically complex child who's care is very involved and tricky along with 2 very normal kids. Dr Peterson has been fantastic in managing it all. He is not over aggressive but not passive either. He is really smart and always seems to know the newest research. He listens to me and values my opinions and never makes me feel dumb. I can always get appointments when I need.
We have been seeing Dr Zarbock and other providers at Families First for 6 years and never had a negative experience. Everyone there is so kind and great with kids. I can always get in when I need to and love their office staff. I recommend them to all my friends looking for pediatricians!

Four Specialties, Hundreds of Improved Outcomes
When Pediatric healthcare specialists can work together as a cohesive team, it isn’t just the parents who benefit. Our ability to consult with one another has helped our providers spot, diagnose, and treat problems more quickly than in a traditional single-specialty setting.
Pediatric Medical
From birth to teenage years, there’s no arguing that kids have special medical needs. Our team of board-certified pediatricians and pediatric specialists is passionate about providing evidence-based care that works.
Pediatric Dentistry
What changes if your child’s dentist and pediatrician are across the hall from one another and can confer about anything either of them sees? The time between diagnosis, treatment, and resolution shortens.
Therapy
We understand mental health is a crucial component of overall health, and we’re committed to simplifying access to integrated care. Our integrated team can address both the medical and behavioral aspects of improving mental health.
Orthodontic Care
On-site orthodontia isn’t just a convenience for parents with more than one child; it provides seamless, early access to interventions that can shorten treatment times, reduce pain, and avoid anxiety—for both kids and parents.

Questions & Answers
Which insurance plans do you accept? What about self-pay?
We accept most insurance plans. You can learn about the insurance plans we accept here, and also check your specific plan by calling us at 801.254.5299. We offer a prompt-pay discount for self-pay families, as well as a sliding scale option for families who qualify. Our billing department looks forward to answering your questions 801.254.5299. To schedule an appointment call or text 801.254.9700.
Are you accepting new patients?
Most of our providers are currently accepting patients, though some may have full practices. To select a provider before making your first appointment, visit our Providers page. You can filter the providers by location and specialty. If you need any help, we’re happy to help you find a great provider. Just text us or call 801.254.9700.
I’m expecting. How do I become a patient before delivering?
If you’ve already identified the pediatric provider you’d like to see your newborn, the next steps are simple. Call the maternity department of the hospital where you plan to deliver and ask them to list your pediatrician of choice in your records. When you deliver, call or text us to set up that important first visit. At that time, our reception will send you an invitation via email to set up a Patient Portal account. From there, you’ll be able to fill out our New Patient Packet online, so everything is in place for the first appointment, and you won’t need to fill out the packet in the office.
What do your providers specialize in?
Our healthcare providers all specialize in children’s health. Within pediatrics, we have four major specialties: medical, dental, orthodontia, and mental health. Having these four specialties in-house doesn’t just make us a unique medical home for your children—it delivers better healthcare for kids and exceptional convenience for parents.
What can I expect at a first appointment?
Whether you’re bringing your three-day old baby or your three-year old toddler, many things are the same about a first appointment. Our welcoming staff will show you into one of our fun and colorful, themed exam rooms and your provider will spend time getting to know you and your child.
First-time visits come with extra paperwork, but it can all be completed online ahead of your visit. You can also print it and bring it with you. Your provider will take a full health history and he or she may have other screening forms they’d like for you to complete.
