Interpretive Services

At Universal Pediatric Associates, every family deserves clear, compassionate communication — no matter what language they speak. Our Interpretive Services ensure that language is never a barrier to your child’s health and well-being.

🌍 Languages We Support

We offer interpretation in many languages, including:

  • Spanish
  • Arabic
  • Mandarin
  • Vietnamese
  • Russian

If you or your child is more comfortable speaking a language other than English, please let us know when scheduling your appointment. We’ll be happy to arrange an interpreter.

💬 Types of Interpretation

To meet each family’s needs, we provide:

  • Phone interpreter for same-day appointments

All interpreters are certified professionals who maintain strict confidentiality and understand medical terminology — especially in pediatric care.

🧸 Why It Matters

Clear communication helps us:

  • Make sure your child’s medical history and symptoms are understood
  • Explain diagnoses, treatments, and medications accurately
  • Ensure that you feel confident and informed about your child’s care

Your child’s health and comfort come first, and we’re committed to partnering with you every step of the way.

 📞 How to Request an Interpreter

When you call to schedule your appointment, simply say,

“I would like an interpreter, please.”

You can also note your preferred language on our New Patient Form or let our front desk team know at check-in. There is no cost to families for interpretive services.
