A New Chapter at Ozark Pediatrics

We have some exciting changes happening at Ozark Pediatrics, and we'd like to introduce a familiar face in a new role.

Amy Keever, Dr. Craig Keever's wife, has joined the Ozark Pediatrics team as our Office Manager.

Over the past several weeks, Dr. Keever and Amy have taken a close look at the administrative side of the practice. In doing so, we have recognized areas where communication, referrals, follow-up, and other important details have not always been handled as consistently or promptly as our families deserve.

We want you to know that we see it, we take it seriously, and we're working hard to make it better.

Amy brings a background in business and organizational management, along with previous professional experience with banking and financial advising. More importantly, she brings a commitment to creating strong systems, supporting our staff, and making sure the families who trust Ozark Pediatrics feel heard and cared for—not only in the exam room, but in every interaction with our office.

Some of our longtime families may already be familiar with Amy through her artwork displayed throughout the office. Now, you'll be seeing a little more of the artist herself!

You may already be noticing some of the changes. We have a largely new team, new systems are being put into place, and we're taking a fresh look at how we handle referrals, phone calls, messages, follow-up, scheduling, and the many behind-the-scenes details that matter to our patients.

Dr. Keever has spent more than 20 years caring for children and families in Northwest Arkansas, and both Craig and Amy care deeply about the future of Ozark Pediatrics and the families it serves.

This is a new chapter for Ozark Pediatrics—and we're excited about where we're headed.

If something has fallen through the cracks in the past, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We want the opportunity to make it right.

Please help us welcome Amy to her new role and our new team as we continue building an Ozark Pediatrics that families can count on.

"Do I have to be plant-based to see Dr. Keever?"

It’s a question I’ve been asked more than once: “Do we have to be plant-based to be a patient at Ozark Pediatrics?”The short answer is absolutely not.If you know me, you probably know that I have a strong interest in lifestyle medicine and the role our everyday choices can play in our long-t...

We love having a strong team at Ozark Pediatrics and Staci is one of the pillars of this team! Here are a few words from Staci...

"The beach with a novel is my happy place and I love to swim and teach young kids to swim. Although I'm not artistic, I've done several paint by numbers for my house. Some of my favorite memories are of doing medical missions in Central America and Africa. My favorite place I've ever visited is Israel. I've graduated one kid to college. I love cooking for my high school son and his friends because they love to eat, and I love my big Labrador and my little Cavachon lap dog."

Staci brings a warmth into every room! We are blessed!

We are so blessed to have such an amazing nurse practitioner like Megan! Her heart is as big as Texas, and she gives everyone such joy when she enters the room! Here are a few words from Megan to know a little more about her......

A few fun facts about me! 😊

I’m left-handed, love to two-step, build LEGOs, and I’m currently learning to bake… although I can’t say I’m great at it yet! 🤣

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, but I love decorating for all of them. I also genuinely love yardwork and starting new projects—finishing them before I change my mind is sometimes another story!

One of my favorite parts of being a nurse practitioner is teaching kids and families, especially when it comes to prevention and keeping kids safe. Sunscreen, helmets, seatbelts, internet safety—you’ll probably hear me talk about all of them!

And someday, I’d love to have a therapy dog in the clinic. Of course, the dog would be there to help our patients… but I have a feeling I might enjoy having them around just as much. 🐾❤️

We have some exciting news at Ozark Pediatrics! 📞

Over the past several months, we know some of our families have experienced difficulties reaching our office by phone. We’ve been actively troubleshooting these issues with our current phone system, and we sincerely apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this may have caused.

Most importantly, we want you to know that **we heard you, we identified the problems, and a better solution is on the way.**

Beginning in October, Ozark Pediatrics will be transitioning to a brand-new phone provider and system designed to make communication with our office easier and more reliable.

Being available when your child needs us is incredibly important to our entire team. We are grateful for your patience as we’ve worked through these challenges, and we’re genuinely excited about this change and the improved experience it will bring to our families.

It's taken us a bit to find where some of the calls were going, which to be honest has been very frustrating as we knew we were attending to everyone as soon as as we could!

Thank you for trusting Ozark Pediatrics with your children. We don’t take that trust lightly, and we look forward to serving you even better. ❤️

One of the best ways to support your child's mental health is simply asking about their day. Small conversations build trust and help children feel supported.
