Caring for Our Youngest Neighbors: Celebrating Excellence in Pediatric Care

At Trinity Health System, caring for our community is more than a professional duty—it is a sacred trust. That responsibility is never more meaningful than when we are entrusted with the health, comfort, and well-being of your children.

As part of CommonSpirit Health, we believe that true healing begins with humankindness. For our pediatric team, that kindness shows up in gentle words that calm a nervous parent, patient explanations that turn a routine exam into an adventure, and compassionate care tailored to the unique needs of growing kids.

That is why we are so deeply honored to share that Dr. Amjad Alkaed has been nominated for Best Pediatrician, and our entire pediatric team has been recognized with a nomination for Best Pediatric Practice in the Herald-Star and Weirton Daily Times 2026 Readers’ Choice Best of the Best Awards!

A Commitment Built on Trust and Compassion

A child’s healthcare journey sets the foundation for a lifetime of wellness. Whether it’s navigating early childhood milestones, offering reassurance during a late-night fever, or managing chronic conditions, Dr. Alkaed and our pediatric staff strive to create a warm, welcoming, and safe environment for every family that walks through our doors.

To be recognized by the families we serve in the Ohio Valley is the greatest validation of our mission. It tells us that the care, empathy, and expertise our team pours into every patient visit is making a meaningful difference where it matters most.
