Penn Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine

Penn Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine is a unique medical practice that focuses solely on the needs of young women and men ages 12 to 29. This specialized practice provides consultative and primary care in a comprehensive manner with a full understanding of the physical and psychological changes associated with transition to adulthood.

Physicians partner with teens, young adults and, when necessary, other health professionals to provide the highest quality of care possible. When patients visit the practice, they are assured that the visit is strictly confidential. Patients decide whether they would like their parents to attend the visit. Some prefer to be accompanied by one or both parents/guardians, but it is entirely up to the patients.
