Centennial Office — Dr. Stephanie Stevens What makes the Centennial office unique? This is our largest office with a wide variety of providers. The diversity brings many combined years of experience and a wide range of specialized interests together in one location, providing plenty of opportunity to consult with colleagues. What makes your job rewarding? The families! I love getting to know the children and their parents in my practice, and I feel so honored to be entrusted with the health of these children. Aurora Office — Dr. Deborah Chen-Becker What makes the Aurora office unique? Some of the families coming to this office have been with APA for several generations. The Aurora office has a very diverse patient base and several bilingual providers. I enjoy being able to use my Spanish language skills to care for patients. What makes your job rewarding? Helping our diverse and growing patient base of APA families, especially when a family says: "I trust you. Tell me what to do to help my child." Parker Office — Dr. Jill Kramer What makes the Parker office unique? It's like a close family. We love working together. Within our building, we have two radiology departments, three laboratories, a pharmacy, and the Children's Hospital ER, so patients don't have to drive anywhere to reach these services. It's very convenient. What makes your job rewarding? It's not one thing; it's everything about APA. We're like one big family always supporting each other. Stapleton Office — Dr. Bradley Kurtz Coming Soon! What makes the new Stapleton office unique? Its community. Stapleton is widely recognized as a model for new community development, and it provides an exciting professional challenge to create a pediatric practice for this dynamic community. What makes your job rewarding? Feeling like what I do on a daily basis might help a family understand better, cope better, laugh more, sleep more, enjoy raising children more — all enriching my life at the same time! Parker Centennial Aurora Stapleton WHY DO FAMILIES RETURN TO ADVANCED PEDIATRICS? CONTINUITY OF CARE With an electronic medical records system, we have every patient's information at our fingertips. This allows us to easily communicate with each other and with specialists. We are the medical home for our patients. By developing continuity of care with patients, we know them and they know us, making it easier to provide them with personalized care. — Dr. Kramer CARING STAFF Our reception staff is always welcoming and goes the extra mile to help families find follow-up appointments that fit their busy schedules. Our medical assistants also have great relationships with our patient families and are eager to make a child's visit as pleasant as possible. — Dr. Chen-Becker CLINICAL CARE As physicians at APA, we take our continuing medical education seriously. Many of us spend extra hours outside of work completing education courses. We often share that knowledge over lunch discussions with our other providers, giving everyone access to the most recent recommendations in care. — Dr. Chen-Becker COMMUNICATION The world is changing and advancement in electronic communication is moving rapidly. We want to reach our patients in ways that are convenient and important to them, such as our website with online services and Facebook. Our new EMR will allow for seamless coordination of care between all of our offices, as well as with many labs, pharmacies and specialists. Over the coming year, APA expects to launch a new patient portal providing patients even more online access to medical records and communication. — Dr. Stevens FOUR DECADES OF SERVICE 1972 1984 Dr. Michael Kurtz opens first office in Aurora.
