View This LocationWelcome to Physicians to Children
Physicians to Children in Montgomery was founded by Dr. Robert “Bob” Beshear in 1977. "Dr. Bob", as he has always affectionately been called by his patients, spent his career as a tireless voice for Alabama's children both locally and statewide. Originally on Eastern Boulevard, the practice was purchased by Children’s of Alabama in 1996 and relocated to the Taylor Medical Complex in February of 2011.
Another source of pride in our office is the family atmosphere provided by such a close-knit group of employees. These are the folks who greet you with a smile at the front desk, with courteous attention on the telephone, and with compassionate commitment throughout our office. We are like a family and our patients feel this loving atmosphere which is so rare in today's hectic world.
Physicians To Children is proud of the many years of service our practice has provided to children of central Alabama. In addition, we serve patients from surrounding areas such as Selma, Clanton and Andalusia. Our physicians, nurses and entire staff feel a unique and genuine calling to care for children and their families.
Physicians to Children is proud to receive Patient Centered Medical Home certification from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) in 2020.
The NCQA Patient Centered Medical Home is a model of primary care that combines teamwork and information technology to improve care, improve patients’ experience of care and reduce costs.
Comprehensive aspects of patient care including referrals, medication pick-ups, diagnostic tests, immunization administrations and other services are provided by the practice.
Thank you for trusting Physicians to Children for your child’s medical care.
Business Office
The goal of Physicians To Children is to provide quality infant, child and adolescent health care to families. Our purpose as pediatricians is to help you develop the kind of skills you will want to have to care for your child and to help him or her develop into a healthy and able adult. In doing so, our hope is that you will reap greater pleasure from the many satisfactions of parenthood. The more familiar you are with the fine points of growth, development, and child care, the more easily you will be able to understand and communicate with your child and fewer will be the difficulties.

Don't Take Shortcuts with Your Children's Health! Put a "Medical Home" Roof Over their Heads!
As you may know, some parents are opting to use urgent care, national telephone care companies and in-store clinics for their children's healthcare. As your child's pediatrician, I ask you to consider these facts.
