Children’s Mercy Kansas City Unveils Plans to Expand Pediatric Ambulatory, Specialty Care in Wichita

Children’s Mercy Kansas City is excited to announce the construction of a new multi-specialty ambulatory clinic in Wichita, Kan. The expansion will help address the growing needs of the community and serve more than 10,000 pediatric patients in the region.

“We are committed to caring for kids close to home – it reduces family stress, saves time and ensures continuity of care with regular health care providers, which leads to better health outcomes and a more positive experience,” said Alejandro Quiroga, MD, MBA, CEO & President, Children’s Mercy. “This new larger clinic location deepens our promise to support children’s health and well-being in the region, and we’re excited to grow alongside the communities we serve to help all children reach their full potential.”

The new 18,000 square foot standalone facility, located at the intersection of North Greenwich Road and East 28th Street N, will be designed to optimize space, foster collaboration and allow for expanded services.

"We’re thrilled to expand our ability to deliver exceptional clinical care to more children and families in the region,” said Mary Ann Queen, MD, FAAP, Vice President and Associate Chief Medical Officer for Regional and Outreach Services. “We’ve been part of Wichita for more than a decade and we look forward to building on that relationship to foster a healthier and stronger community.

Since 2012, Children’s Mercy has been a cornerstone in south central Kansas providing world-class pediatric care in more than 30 specialty clinics, including Cardiology, Endocrinology and Nephrology. The new clinic will allow for additional specialty offerings in-person and through telemedicine.

“For thirteen years, we’ve delivered excellent, timely and coordinated care for families at Children’s Mercy’s Wichita ambulatory center,” said Amy Fallon, MPH, PhD, President of Regional Operations. “As a leading children’s health organization, we are thrilled to increase health care access for families in the Wichita community.” 

The new Children’s Mercy Wichita location is expected to open in Summer 2026.
