Both Dr. Sagan and Dr. Vijay are board-certified by the American Board of Pediatrics.
Swedish Covenant Medical Group Pediatrics welcomes you and your family. Our goal is to provide the excellent health care that infants, children and teens deserve.
Dr. Sagan's Practice Philosophy
"My approach to medical care is practical, offering sensible answers and reasonable opinions. I love caring for children, and 'What if this were my child?' is my guiding principle. I especially enjoy helping parents anticipate the more challenging aspects of parenting and child development, so they avoid common parenting pitfalls and are more likely to focus on the joys of parenting all along the way."
Dr. Vijay's Practice Philosophy
"I truly enjoy all my roles as a pediatrician, from treating sick children to advising parents. Providing quality health care in a sensitive, courteous and compassionate manner is my goal. I strive to both educate and learn from my patients and never lose sight of their social and emotional wellbeing."
