Pediatric Specialists
Children are unique in their own special ways and so are their healthcare needs. At Memorial Hospital, we believe your child deserves to have his or her needs met locally, which is why we opened the Department of Pediatrics in 2012. The department provides medical care from birth to young adulthood with treatments ranging from well-child checks to management of serious healthcare issues.

Expert Pediatric Endocrinology Services
Endocrinology at Memorial Hospital of Converse County provides treatment for endocrine diseases. Our endocrinologist, Dr. Kathryn Skuza, treats hormone imbalances that are often complex and involve many systems in the body.
The endocrine system is comprised of a complex group of organs called glands that exist throughout the body. Glands produce hormones that are secreted directly into the bloodstream.
Dr. Kathryn Skuza is double-boarded in Pediatrics and Pediatric Endocrinology and has more than 25 years of experience within her specialty. Prior to Memorial Hospital, she was the attending Pediatric Endocrinologist at several Children's Hospitals in New Jersey. She has been recognized as a Top Doctor of the New York Metro Area in Pediatric Endocrinology.
