Pediatric Pod
Concierge Pediatrics

Quality Care and Convenience Redefined!

Would you believe seeing your child’s doctor could be easy?

At Pediatric Pod Concierge Pediatrics, we believe in a Proactive approach to healthcare. We know life can get busy so let us help take care of your children!

Welcome !

I am Dr. Aida Khanum, a Baylor-trained, board-certified, multilingual Pediatrician in Houston/Bellaire, TX.

I am a traveler, amateur dancer, movie buff, wife, daughter, and mother. It is amazing how motherhood changed so many things in my life.

I realized after having my own children that traditional medical practices aren’t serving families the way they should. I felt all families, particularly first-time mom’s and busy working families just were not able to get the care they wanted and needed.

Frustrating phone trees, the lack of appointment availability and the push to go to the urgent care (where you are seen by non-pediatric, non-physician providers,) crowded waiting rooms where you wait for hours, less than 10-minute appointments and those surprise bills are simply unacceptable in today’s world.

I decided to create a new practice where I could offer my patients what I wanted for my own family! A Personalized and a Proactive approach to care with Direct access to me and where I Respect your Time and offer Transparency on all costs.

Pediatric Pod Concierge Pediatrics is a membership-based practice designed for families who prefer a more personalized and accessible approach to healthcare for their children. Parents gain a trusted partner in their child’s health, ensuring a proactive and nurturing approach to growing up healthy and happy.

My practice is a great fit for first time parents who really want to have someone available to walk them through that adjusting period with a newborn, families with demanding schedules who appreciate flexible appointment times and shorter wait times, those with children who have chronic health issues or special needs looking for more focused and attentive care and families looking for the peace of mind that they have immediate access to medical advice.

Overall, my practice is for anyone seeking a higher level of service and tailored healthcare for their children. Families partner with me to address the health of their children through evidence-based medicine recommendations. Even if your child is healthy today, I would say the time is now to establish a relationship with a doctor who cares and helps you lay the foundation for your child’s good health. My practice panel size is small so I would recommend to join now when space is still available.

If this is what you are looking for then make the leap and join Pediatric Pod Concierge Pediatrics. I look forward to being your child’s doctor!

Warmly,

Aida Khanum MD

Why do Families Join Our Practice in Bellaire?

Our goal is to provide a completely personalized experience from the moment you join. For us YOU are the most important member of our team!

From the time you arrive you are welcomed by our medical assistant into an inviting waiting room where the atmosphere is very comfortable, without the rush of a busy pediatric office. Our little practice members often spend a couple of minutes choosing a book to take into the room with them. Our low-volume practice allows our families to get seen on time and most of their time in the office is spent in the exam room chatting with the doctor. The conversation ranges from health concerns to food recipes, travel plans and tips on parenting. This allows them to develop that close physician-family relationship.

Our Families Love :

The convenience of calling our board-certified pediatrician afterhours for Urgent concerns
Getting to talk to someone at the office every time they call
Texting with concerns during work hours
Same-day appointments – we really try to work with the parents’ schedule
Telemedicine visits
Most visits last 30 minutes or longer
On-time appointments
Focus on wellness and prevention – “remember an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure”!
In-office laboratory tests
Coordination of subspecialty visits

Extremely courteous, professional and accommodating office and staff. Our son has been a patient for 7 years. We’ve always been able to see Dr khanum same day for sick visits and have never had trouble scheduling for well visits. She has always cared for our child just like her own and moves mountains to ensure he is seen promptly when referred to other specialists. Her diagnosis and treatment are always on point and keep us out of the ER. After becoming patients of her concierge practice, we’ve been able to have her available for advice and consultation whenever we need. She has always responded very promptly and gotten us in for a visit right away! Couldn’t recommend her enough!

In the age of 15 minute physician visits driven by insurance companies, it is a relief and a privilege to spend seemingly unlimited time with Dr. Khanum. As a first-time mom, I cherish the ability to have every one of my questions answered in an unhurried manner. Furthermore, knowing that Dr. Khanum is so readily available to answer questions or see my daughter takes some of the “Mom stress” away. We are very grateful to her and proud to be a part of her practice!!

We've had a great experience! Dr. Khanum is very responsive and helpful. She follows up to make sure your little one's improving and truly cares about them. She takes her time at appointments. She masters the concierge model, making you feel seen, but the monthly fee was far less than our PPO premiums used to be. It's truly personalized care!

Pediatric Pod was my first exposure to concierge care, and I am happy to learn that options are increasing for today's healthcare. The practice is committed to providing quality preventive care and patient education at accessible availability that may not be available at other busy practices. Both Dr. Khanum and Cyntia create a warm and caring environment while maintaining professionalism to make both the children and parents feel at ease. Dr. Khanum attentively listens to patient concerns, and thoroughly explains medical conditions and next steps so that families can be involved partners in taking a proactive approach to health and well being. Appointments can be scheduled within the same day, wait times are minimal, and parents can spend as long as necessary with Dr. Khanum to discuss concerns.

I had a very wonderful experience rotating with Dr. Aida Khanum at Pediatric Pod. She is the kind of pediatrician I want to become. Dr. Khanum is highly experienced and competent. She is exceptionally attentive and responsive, devoting as much time as necessary to each patient and addressing all questions in great detail. Such personalized and comprehensive way she treats her patients has impressed me a lot. Dr. Khanum truly cares about her patients and does more than enough to help them. The clinic's workflow is well organized and arranged and parents can always schedule an appointment in the nearest future. I think such a high level of care is genuinely rare!

Dr. Khanum's expertise, compassion, and dedication to the well-being of children makes her a true gem. She takes the time to listen to the parents' concerns, thoroughly explains diagnoses and treatment options, and always goes the extra mile to ensure that they are well-informed and comfortable with the care plan. What truly sets this clinic apart is the level of personalized attention patients receive. The concierge approach means that the patients never feel rushed during appointments, and they appreciate the flexibility in scheduling. It's reassuring to know that the child's healthcare needs are met promptly and comprehensively. I would highly recommend Pediatric Pod and Dr. Khanum!

We have been with Dr Khanum for 5 years now with all of our children and we could not be happier. Dr Khanum is thorough, knowledgeable and proactive. She has a wonderful bedside manner and is the most punctual medical professional we have ever met to boot! The staff is equally as incredible making the doctors visits something our kids actually look forward to. We highly recommend Pediatric Pod to all!

I have been attending my son with Dr. Aida Khanum for a short time. And the truth is that I am delighted with the service and treatment of the clinic staff. The best decision I made was to change my son for that clinic. Recommended with eyes closed.
