    Children's Center Celebrates Ten Years of Service!

    Owensboro Health Children’s Center is celebrating ten years of serving families in our region!

    This growing pediatric practice is home to four pediatricians, two nurse practitioners and a full team to support them. Looking back, we are grateful to everyone that has been a part of making this practice what it is today and we look forward to many years of building relationships and caring for the children in our community.
