Texas Children’s Pediatric Associates (TCPA), a subsidiary of Texas Children’s Hospital, is the nation’s largest group of general pediatricians. To provide access to outstanding pediatricians, TCPA has more than 40 locations throughout Houston and its surrounding communities.

TCPA was founded in 1995 with the mission of providing the finest pediatricians, dedicated to delivering comprehensive, quality primary care and education to the children of the community.

More than 140 TCPA board-certified or board-eligible pediatricians provide pediatric medical care. Practices are located in convenient urban or suburban areas to provide ease of access to the families we serve.

Today, TCPA’s pediatricians serve approximately 20 percent of Houston’s children. They help prevent childhood illnesses and are an integral part of Texas Children’s commitment to building a community of healthy children. Because of its affiliation with Baylor College of Medicine, the depth of the pediatric subspecialties within Baylor College of Medicine is a resource for TCPA’s physicians and their patients who need specialized care.
