As we celebrate our 50th birthday, we want to recognize some of the people behind the scenes that have made it possible. We start with Bobbi Jo and Tammy, affectionately known to us as TammyJo, as they truly are inseparable. Whether spending time with each other’s grandkids, or their annual gingerbread house contest at Christmas, they are true “work sisters” and epitomize what it means to be part of the Reading Pediatrics family.

For almost 25 years Bobbi Jo and Tammy have served as our care coordinators. If your children have ever needed an appointment with a specialist or an MRI, CT scan, or ultrasound, you have probably spoken with Tammy or Bobbi Jo. From working with insurance companies to get studies approved, to developing relationships with specialists at CHOP, Hershey, DuPont, and beyond, they are the masters of making these appointments happen. They are true advocates for our patients, often at a time when they need us the most. We are lucky to have them at Reading Pediatrics.

Reading Pediatrics is 50 years old! Started by Dr. Mark Reuben in 1976, we are proud to celebrate this milestone of caring for children in our community. This journey would not have been possible without the efforts of many, and we hope to recognize some of them over the course of the year, so stay tuned. If there is anyone who has made a positive impact on your children, please let us know!

Most importantly, the opportunity to care for generations of children does not happen without you entrusting the care of your children to us. It is a privilege we remain ever grateful for. Thank you!!

Honest Conversations: Respecting Myself, Respecting Others
We’re excited to share that we’re using the Elevatus Training program to support young people with disabilities in learning about healthy relationships, boundaries, safety, and self-advocacy.

The program begins with a parent and caregiver component, giving families the tools and confidence to have open, supportive conversations with their young person. From there, youth will participate in interactive sessions that cover topics like understanding bodies, consent, communication, friendships, and navigating relationships with confidence.
