From the Desk of Terence McAllister, MD, FAAP Vision: To establish lifelong healthy habits in childhood. For six years, as I worked as a staff pediatrician on active duty with the U.S. Air Force in Ohio and New Mexico, I envisioned my ideal small pediatric practice in my home-state of Massachusetts. The Performance Pediatrics Vision guides our practice in all decision-making tasks. We work with patients and their families to address a child's entire primary healthcare needs. Our whole-child concept addresses a child's physical, developmental and emotional health.
Our logo embodies this vision with the soccer ball representing physical health, the graduation cap representing learning and developmental health and the music symbol representing the capacity for emotional expression and behavioral-health needs.
Mission: To support our patients as they fulfill their individual physical, developmental and emotional health potential through medicine, education and example. I cherish the privilege of watching my patients as they grow. In my opinion, children perform each and every day: They perform physically, academically and creatively. As their primary care provider, it is my job to make sure that they are achieving appropriate milestones, adopting healthy habits and weathering any illnesses they encounter in their young lives.
