"Dr. Barasch and I started this practice in 1994 in a small office in Watchung. One goal: treat the whole child — body, mind, and spirit. Thirty years and three offices later, that hasn't changed. Pediatricians, nurse practitioners, social workers, dietitians, and lactation support all under one roof. Saturday hours, telehealth, a doctor on call 24/7."

— Dr. Andrea Katz, Co-Founder

Our Mission

Watchung Pediatrics is dedicated to providing comprehensive, compassionate care for children from birth through young adulthood. We treat the whole child — body, mind, and spirit — with a multi-disciplinary team that includes pediatricians, nurse practitioners, social workers, a registered dietitian, and lactation consultants.

As a Patient-Centered Medical Home, we coordinate all aspects of your child's care under one roof. Every family has a primary care provider who knows your child's history, and our team communicates daily to ensure continuity.

We welcome families of all backgrounds and are proud to serve one of the most diverse patient populations in New Jersey.
