Progressive Pediatrics

Progressive Pediatrics For 20+ years, our pediatric team has served Northern NJ families. We care for newborns through young adults with exams, vaccines & urgent visits.

North Jersey moms choose Progressive Pediatrics for many reasons. They know that their children are in good hands with our highly skilled, experienced, board-certified female pediatricians, Drs.Polack and Teraguchi , As well as Claire Smith PA-C who also happen to be moms themselves. Progressive Pediatrics has been serving the North Jersey community since 1999. Moms know that we are caring and compassionate doctors with great bedside manners, and we have a knack for making children and parents feel comfortable. Parents also like the fact that our doctors and staff are multilingual (English, Spanish, and Arabic). The Wellness Center at Progressive Pediatrics is committed to helping young people get to a healthier weight and lifestyle so they can avoid chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. We’re big on patient education and we believe in fluid communication with each patient’s family. We involve parents and families in treatment decisions. And we’re known for our high-quality care, personalized service and attention – our doctors know your child by name.

A little behind the scenes look at our team training.

Our MAs have been busy mastering lead testing and yes, that means plenty of practicing on each other first.

We always make sure we feel confident before bringing anything new to our patients. We are excited to offer this as an in house service soon and help save our families an extra trip to the lab.
