Opening June 2027 - Eastern Iowa

PEDIATRICIAN plus

A new model of pediatric care.

Pediatrician plus the time, attention, and

whole-body care every family deserves.

What makes us different?

Pediatric care, the way you + your doctor knows it should be.

No insurance hassles. No 12-minute appointments. No more leaving the office with more questions than answers. Education, empowerment, whole child focus so they can not just survive, but THRIVE.

Pediatric care the way it should feel

Time, not minutes.

Real conversations, not rushed visits. Appointments long enough to actually understand what's going on — and to make a plan together.

Membership, not insurance.

A flat monthly membership replaces copays, claim forms, and surprise bills. Direct access to your pediatrician when you need her — by text, by phone, or in person.

Whole-body, not just sick visits.

Sleep. Nutrition. Movement. Screens. Gut health. Mental health. Environment. The things that actually shape how kids grow up — built into every visit, not squeezed in at the end.

Whole body pediatric care for Eastern Iowa

PediatricianPlus is a membership-based pediatric clinic opening summer 2027 in eastern Iowa. We're building the practice we dreamed of in medical school and we want every family had access to — one that has time for the questions you've been carrying around, treats the whole child rather than the symptom of the day, and helps your child and family THRIVE.

Be a part of opening day.

Reserve your family's spot

For families who want to become patients when we open.


Memberships will be limited. Joining the waitlist puts your family at the front of the line — and you'll be the first to hear about founding-member pricing.

We have two ways to stay in the loop. Pick the one that fits you — or do both. (We won't email you more than a couple of times a month.)

Just want to follow the journey?

For everyone else.

We'll send occasional updates as the clinic comes together — what we're building, why, and the parenting wellness content Dr. Skogman is known for.

Meet the Founder

Hi! I’m Dr. Padget Skogman — a board-certified pediatrician, child advocate, and mama to three little women. I'm opening PediatricianPlus because the way pediatric care is delivered today isn't the way I want to care for kids, or the way I'd want my own kids cared for.
