Compass Peds This is the official page for Compass Pediatrics, located in Gallatin, TN

✨ If you are new here, or even if you are not, we want to welcome you to Compass Pediatrics and share a little bit about who we are!

✨ Compass Pediatrics was started and opened its doors to serve the Middle Tennessee area in 2019 by Dr. Scott Huitink. It is our passion and mission to Serve, Educate and Advocate for our patients and community!

✨ If you are interested in becoming a new patient at our clinic, we are happy to help you! We accept most major insurances, but if you are unsure if we are in- network with your policy then give your insurance company a call to confirm!

✨ It is our policy to follow the immunization schedule recommended by the AAP. In addition to the risk vaccine-preventable diseases create for other children, we do not believe there is a healthy opportunity to assist in a child’s health and well-being if there is an antagonistic foundation toward our expertise and experience. We have elected not to develop or maintain professional medical relationships with those who reject our immunization policy.

✨ Lastly if you would like to establish care for your family, you can find all of our new patient forms on our website at: www.compasspeds.com. We look forward to partnering with your family to champion alongside you in the health and well-being of your children!

This helpful resource from the American Academy of Pediatrics explains what parents should know about the Hepatitis B vaccine, including why it’s recommended, when it’s given, and how it helps protect your child’s health.

We’re sharing this to help families feel informed and confident when it comes to immunizations. And as always, if you have questions about your child’s vaccine schedule, our Compass Pediatrics team is here to guide you.

A Pediatric Voice on Social Media

This page, “Compass Peds”, is the page for Compass Pediatrics, an independent pediatric clinic, started by Scott Huitink, MD and Mary Kathryn Oliver, CPNP, opening in Gallatin, Tennessee August 2019. I started this FB page as a personal venture to facilitate the health and welfare of children by addressing medical issues and concerns that are affecting pediatric and adolescent care. My hope is that through the information posted on this page your family's pediatric medical knowledge will be enriched. If you would like for your child to be seen by me or Mary Kathryn Oliver, CPNP, Compass Pediatrics is located in Gallatin, Tennessee, on the north side of Nashville. You can sign up today with your children at www.compasspeds.com. I would love to see you there. --Scott Huitink, MD
