Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects how a child learns, interacts, and experiences the world. It can show up as difficulty concentrating, impulsive actions, or constant motion — and every child experiences it differently.

At Mango Pediatrics, Dr. Rubina Azam offers compassionate, family-centered ADHD care. We help parents understand the diagnosis, create manageable routines, and empower children to succeed at home, in school, and socially.

QEEG (Quantitative Electroencephalography) Brain Mapping is a diagnostic tool that measures electrical activity in the brain using electrodes placed on the scalp. It provides a detailed overview of brain wave patterns, helping to identify abnormalities in brain function. This non-invasive procedure is often used in clinical settings to assess conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, and epilepsy, guiding treatment plans and monitoring progress. QEEG can also aid in understanding cognitive processes and optimizing mental performance.

In cooperation with community based mental health providers, we evaluate and treat children for behavior concerns and school problems including:

• Inattention and lack of focus
• Anxiety
• Depression

Asthma is one of the most common chronic conditions in children — but with the right care, it’s highly manageable. At Mango Pediatrics, Dr. Rubina Azam provides evidence-based diagnosis and ongoing management of asthma, so your child can thrive.

We’re here to empower you with education, guidance, and treatment that fits your child’s unique needs.

What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is a personalized, science-based approach to pediatric care that focuses on finding the root cause of illness instead of only treating the symptoms.

At Mango Pediatrics, Dr. Rubina Azam takes a deep look at your child’s nutrition, lifestyle, genetics, and environment to understand what’s really affecting their health.

Is Functional Medicine Right for My Child?

We often use this approach for children experiencing:

• Frequent infections or chronic illnesses
• Gut issues like constipation, bloating, or food sensitivities
• Allergies or eczema
• ADHD or behavioral concerns
• Sleep disturbances
• Mood imbalance or fatigue
• Autism spectrum-related challenges
• Unexplained symptoms that haven’t improved with standard care

If your child has a disability or a chronic illness, your journey may feel like the road less traveled. You probably have interactions with many different professionals and specialists. You need information, assistance, understanding, and support.

We recommend ear piercing occur after 3 months old. Waiting until children are 3 months old ensures that they have had their first set of vaccines and allows the ear to grow big enough to allow for accurate placing of the earing. We want to make sure that this elective procedure carries as little risk to your child as possible. 

Be sure to check with your pharmacy to ensure you do not have refills. If refills are unavailable, we kindly request that you give our office a call. Our team is dedicated to providing outstanding patient care and ensuring that your medications are readily available when you need them.

We like to begin your newborn care in the hospital and continue as an integral part of the comprehensive care provided by our professional team!

Children may experience a range of medical conditions that could benefit from the expertise of a pediatric specialist in a particular field. We emphasize the coordination of all healthcare providers involved in a child's treatment. 

Breastfeeding provides essential nutrition for infants birth to one year and older. As with learning anything new, most breastfeeding mothers and babies (and dads too!) need some instruction and support during this learning period.

Regular physicals are an important part of preventative pediatric care. Getting your child an sports physical gives the doctor the opportunity to examine your child, evaluate their health and fitness, and determine whether or not they are prepared for sports or school activities.
