“When your child is sick, it’s easy to take them to the closest open office. “I am very passionate about ensuring that the children in my community get high-quality, specialized pediatric care,” said Leopard. Leopard said she noticed the huge gap in pediatric after-hours care in her community and has worked towards making a significant impact in the way acute care is delivered to the children of the CSRA. Located in North Augusta, the clinic is helping reduce non-emergency visits to the ER and lift the burden that pediatricians’ offices in the area have faced this past year. “I am so excited to report that we have served nearly 4,000 kids in the last year,” she said. Leopard is also one of the first nurse practitioners in the state to open her own pediatric office. They accept Georgia and South Carolina Medicaid plans, as well as most major private insurances.
