About Pediatric Partners & Our Care Philosophy
Dedicated to the physical, mental, and developmental health of El Paso's children from their first newborn checkup through young adulthood.
Rooted in the El Paso Community
Pediatric Partners was established with a singular vision: to bring world-class, university-grade pediatric care home to the families of El Paso. Founded by board-certified pediatrician Dr. Jose Prieto Jr., a native El Pasoan educated at MIT, Stanford Medical School, and Boston Children’s Hospital, our clinic blends academic excellence with heartfelt borderland compassion.
Joined by Dr. Andres Aristizabal and our dedicated nurse practitioners and physician assistant, we function as a collaborative team. We don't just treat symptoms—we partner with parents to guide children through every growth spurt, milestone, and childhood challenge.
The Three Pillars of Our Practice
The standards that guide every interaction, diagnosis, and treatment in our clinic.
Evidence-Based Medicine
We follow the stringent guidelines set forth by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the CDC. We believe medicine should be grounded in rigorous science, peer-reviewed evidence, and continuous clinical education.
NCQA Medical Home
Recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH). This prestigious designation reflects our comprehensive care coordination, preventive emphasis, and patient safety tracking.
Bilingual Family Partnership
We listen first. Parents know their children best. Every member of our medical and administrative team is fully bilingual in English and Spanish, ensuring seamless communication and mutual trust at every visit.
