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!

Big News at Compass Pediatrics! 📞💙

We’re adding Voice AI to help reduce missed calls and hold times.

Don’t worry — this is not replacing our staff. Calls will still ring in our office first. If we’re unavailable, Voice AI can help with refills, billing questions, clinical questions, and scheduling.

Messages are sent directly to our staff, so you’ll still be communicating with our team while giving us new tools to serve you more efficiently.

Thank you for your patience and trust as we introduce this new way to better serve our Compass families. 💙

Keeping your child up to date on vaccines is one of the most important ways to protect their health. Vaccines help prevent serious illnesses that once caused widespread illness and complications for children.

Staying on schedule not only protects your child, but also helps protect infants, vulnerable family members, and others in our community who may be more at risk.

If you’re unsure whether your child is up to date on their vaccines, our team is happy to help review their record and answer any questions.

📞 Call 615-461-0656 to speak with our team or schedule an appointment.

Meet Kara Hester 💚

Kara is a Certified Medical Assistant with 18 years of pediatric experience and a busy mom of two. She has been a valued member of the Compass Pediatrics team for four years, bringing both expertise and real-life mom perspective to every visit!

She has a heart for helping families and feels called to care for little ones while supporting parents every step of the way. She also loves being part of a team that lives out its faith, mission, and values daily.

Outside of the clinic, you’ll find her spending time with her family, making beach memories, cheering on her daughter at horse shows, and watching her son play football.

We’re so grateful for the care and heart Kara brings to our families every day 💚

At Compass Pediatrics, creating a space where families feel welcomed, heard, and cared for is just as important as the care we provide.

Our first newborn class was such a special experience 👶🍼

We’re so grateful to Amy Simpson for leading this class and creating a space where families could learn, ask questions, and feel more confident as they begin their parenting journey. Her time, care, and dedication helped make it a welcoming and supportive experience for everyone.

A big thank you as well to Kara and Elizabeth on our team for helping set up and taking the time to answer questions after the class!

We love being able to support our families every step of the way, even before baby arrives 💚

Measles is one of the most contagious viruses in the world, and recent outbreaks across the United States are a reminder of why vaccination remains so important. Learn more here: https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html

Measles spreads easily through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. In fact, 9 out of 10 people who are not vaccinated will become infected if they are exposed.

Symptoms often begin with fever, cough, runny nose, and red eyes before a rash appears, but the illness can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, brain inflammation, and hospitalization — especially in young children.

The MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, and rubella) is highly effective and has helped prevent millions of cases of measles worldwide.

Staying up to date on your child’s vaccines helps protect not only your child, but also infants, immunocompromised individuals, and others in our community who cannot be vaccinated.

If you have questions about measles, vaccines, or your child’s immunization schedule, our team is here to help.

📞 Call 615-461-0656 to speak with our team or schedule an appointment.

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
