Because trusted care starts with a story that goes back to 1951.
Our pediatric offices have cared for Middle Tennessee families since 1951, when Dr. Luthur A. Beazley, M.D. opened the practice on Old Lebanon Road. From newborn checkups to teen physicals, our team has always been there for the everyday moments and the ones that need extra care. Dr. William Wadlington, M.D. and Dr. Bill Doak, M.D. joined in 1958 and 1960, and over seven decades the practice has grown to 16 board-certified pediatricians. On January 1, 2021, we proudly joined Heritage Medical Associates — continuing our mission to serve every child and family with exemplary, compassionate care, with the same diligent attention given to every individual regardless of race, religion, or creed.
