Welcome!
This is the pediatric practice of Drs. Daphne and Paul
Horowitz in Santa Clarita. After three years in
We have small "well" and "sick" reception rooms (nobody should expect to wait, so we don't call them waiting rooms). We don't have receptionists to get in the way between you and us either. Our team members work in both the front and back office; so the chances are good that the person who answers the phone is the same person who took your child's vitals, or gave her vaccines....
Discovery Pediatrics is a unique practice; there is a fee to cover costs that are not normally paid by traditional insurance. We also bill insurance in the same way a traditional office bills insurance companies. Our practice limits the number of children enrolled, in order to provide superior service.

For detailed information about Swine Flu, click the link to the CDC below. As of right now, we have the ability to detect influenza and distinguish type A from type B in our office for those children with febrile respiratory illnesses. The CDC is evaluating the test kit we have to determine if it will pick up Swine Flu (but we expect that it could).
We have received a number of calls about swine flu. We're happy to talk with you about any concerns and we're trying to stay up-to-date with the latest information about the current outbreak. Please call with any questions.
