Pediatrics

Trusted Healthcare Services for Infants, Children & Adolescents

Pediatrics is the practice of medicine serving newborns to 21 years of age.

Our pediatricians are board-certified and enjoy caring for children with complex medical needs, but also those experiencing normal growth and development.

Child Immunizations

Is your family growing? To protect your new baby against whooping cough, get the Tdap vaccine. The recommended time is the 27th through 36th week of pregnancy. For a list of recommended vaccines for infants and children, download this parent friendly version from the CDC. Talk to your doctor for more details.

Well Child Exams

Our well child exams are comprehensive, covering not just weight, height, and immunization, but also vision, dental, and developmental screening as well as guidance on injury prevention, nutrition, emotional development and behavior.

Flexible scheduling allows for advance scheduling of well child exams, but also same-day appointments for acutely ill children.

Pediatric services are provided by Svetlana Bresnitz, MD; Jason Kalan, MD; Amarilys Rojas, MD; and Gina Stephens, NP.

Specialty Services

We're thrilled to announce a significant enhancement in pediatric healthcare at San Luis Valley Health Pediatrics, thanks to our collaboration with Children’s Hospital. This initiative brings specialized care teams directly to our clinic in Alamosa, making advanced and highly specialized healthcare accessible right where it’s needed.

We have welcomed Dr. Joyce Oleszek and the Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine team, along with Dr. Seema Bansal’s Neurology team. This effort provided our families the convenience of specialized care in the familiar setting of their pediatrician’s office, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to healthcare excellence within our community.

We also look forward to hosting the Pediatric Cardiology and Pediatric Development teams from Children’s Hospital in coming months. These specialists (along with the Rehab and Neurology teams) will visit on a rotating basis, further ensuring that our children have access to the care they need, when they need it.
