Whole-Child Care, from the Very Beginning
At Oso Pediatrics, we believe pediatric care is about the whole child — physical health, emotional well-being, and developmental growth — guided by a team with the expertise to meet your family wherever you are in the journey.

Newborn & Infant Care
We offer specialized newborn care and attentive support for premature infants, plus the reassurance and practical guidance every new parent needs from day one. Dr. Dyer and Dr. Harris both bring expertise in newborn care, and we’re here to make sure your family starts strong.

Preventive Care & Well Visits
We provide comprehensive well-child visits with immunizations, developmental screenings, and age-appropriate guidance grounded in the latest American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations and evidence-based practice. Dr. Jugant, with 25+ years of expertise in preventive medicine and vaccines, brings a depth of knowledge to every checkup.

Acute, Chronic & Specialty Care
From common illnesses to complex conditions, our team brings specialized expertise across dermatology, gastroenterology, allergies, asthma, and adolescent health, with seamless referrals to Rady Children’s Health specialists when your child needs additional support.
Why Orange County Families Choose Oso Pediatrics

Our four board-certified pediatricians have specialties spanning newborn care, dermatology, gastroenterology, adolescent health, nutrition, premature infants, vaccines, and child development. Whatever your child needs, someone on this team has focused expertise in it.
Dr. Salter chairs the Women and Infants Department at Mission Hospital, leads the Mother and Baby Substance Initiative, and serves on the OC AAP board. Dr. Dyer sits on the CHOC at Mission Hospital Executive Committee. These are doctors who help set the standard for pediatric care in Orange County.
With just four physicians, you’ll come to know all of us, and we’ll come to know your family. It’s the kind of boutique, old-school, premier pediatric care that was common 20 years ago and rarely exists today, paired with the resources and specialist network of Rady Children’s Health.
We recognize the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and developmental well-being, and we value the input, culture, and individuality every family brings.
Our Aliso Viejo office on Pacific Park Drive sits just off the I-5 and 73 toll road, with easy parking and a central location for families in Laguna Niguel, Laguna Hills, Mission Viejo, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, and Rancho Santa Margarita, plus the partnership with Rady Children’s Health when your child needs specialty care.
Quality Pediatric Primary Care for Patients in Orange County
After more than a decade practicing side by side, our four physicians branched off to build Oso from scratch — opening our brand-new, purpose-built Aliso Viejo space in January 2024 with the vision and experience to reimagine what pediatric care can be.
As members of the Rady Children’s Health Primary Care Network, we are part of a collaborative team of pediatric health experts who share our philosophy of patient- and family-centered care and our vision for making our community one of the healthiest and safest in the nation for children. Collectively, our pediatricians have served Orange County for more than two decades, and are passionate about keeping kids happy and healthy.
Thank you for entrusting us with the care of your children. We look forward to seeing you very soon!
