Pediatric Care
Without exception, each of our pediatricians is required to be board certified and maintain certification by the American Board of Pediatrics. This means that all have completed an approved training program and subsequently passed a Board exam to ensure that their skills are appropriate. This is a baseline from which we continually try to build a practice that cares for your medical needs and as importantly cares for you as a parent and your child as a patient. We encourage you to assist us in providing the highest quality of care by keeping us informed of ways that we can improve our service.
Primary Care
Dr. Brice joined Knoxville Pediatric Associates in 2006. Prior to joining KPA, he was a primary care pediatrician at The Children's Center in Greenwood, SC, for five years.
Emergency Care
We try to allot enough time for each patient when we make the schedules, but sometimes things happen. Maybe the patient ahead of you has showed up a few minutes late, so we’re late going in to see them and then subsequently you. A child throws up in car or won’t let the nurse check vital signs. All these happen, and that’s okay. Most of the time, though, the problem is that our patients are ready and on time but we providers are behind. Unexpected questions or problems have come up somewhere in the day ahead of you and you’re now having to wait. Sometimes a mild cough and fever turns out to be pneumonia, and a patient needs to get a chest x-ray or a breathing treatment done in the office unexpectedly. Maybe a new mom has lots of questions, because being a first-time parent is a hard and stressful job and we all want reassurance that everything is alright. More times than I care to count, I’ve had to call the children’s hospital about getting a patient to the emergency room or admitted to the hospital. And rarely I have to have the worst discussions possible about a new diagnosis of diabetes or a concern for a serious illness. None of these are ever planned or expected, and all may impact the schedule of patients who are waiting in line.

Nephrology
He graduated from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 1968. He earned his medical degree from the University of Tennessee College of Medicine in 1972 and he completed his internship at Cincinnati Childrenâ€™s Hospital and his residency at Le Bonheur Childrenâ€™s Hospital in Memphis, where he also did additional training in pediatric nephrology.

Mental Health
Medical records of a sensitive nature (mental health, HIV status, pregnancy status, etc.) must NEVER be faxed. Also, records should never be faxed to a parent or guardian. If it is necessary to fax records to another physician, only the information needed (i.e. Records for a referral visit) should be faxed and a â€œconfidentialâ€ fax cover sheet must be used. The patient, or other person authorized to provide consent, has the right to withdraw consent for the release of information at any time. Such withdrawal must be in writing. No information can be released after consent has been withdrawn.
