Why families choose North Star Pediatrics
  • Local, accessible pediatric care: We are conveniently located to serve Fishkill and surrounding communities. 
  • Personalized and family-centered: We know our families by name and strive to build lasting relationships based on trust and open communication. 
  • Expert team dedicated to child wellness: Our team brings together the combined experience of two longstanding community practices, with a whole-child approach to pediatric care. We understand that a child's health is shaped by many factors, and we take all of these into account when treating our patients. To support this approach, our practice includes two mental health counselors and one behavioral health consultant. They work alongside our physicians and nurse practitioners to address the emotional and behavioral wellbeing of every child in addition to their physical health. 
  • After-hours care you can trust: Our lines are always open to you. Call us when you are worried, need advice, or have an emergency. If your child requires medical attention after hours, it's always possible to reach our physician or pediatric nurse practitioners. 
Dr. Neelofar Butt is an amazing pediatrician. We’ve been coming to her since my son was a baby. She is so loving, caring, and kind and she takes care of our son as if he was her own child. She answers all of her emails and responds quickly making the patient a priority. Definitely wouldn’t want any other pediatrician but her!
