Children’s Medical Group, P.A. was founded in February, 1948 by Drs. Charles Ward and Jim Hendrick with the original office located on North State Street in Jackson. By 1958, the Group had expanded to five Pediatricians and moved to Carlisle Street where it remained until 1999 when it moved to Crane Ridge Drive. By that time, CMG had an office in Clinton and Madison.
Currently CMG is 13 Board Certified Pediatricians who have hospital privileges at Baptist Medical Center, University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Central Mississippi Medical Center.
Each physician has a registered nurse working with him/her during office hours to assist with patient care and return phone calls for appointments and/or patient information.
The CMG Jackson office is open every day of the year except for Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and has after hours available every day. The Madison and Clinton offices are open Monday through Friday.
After the afterhours clinic closes at night, CMG utilizes the Nurse Triage Telephone Program at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. During the night, all calls to CMG will be answered by a Registered Nurse with a CMG physician available on call. |
