Dr. Howard Rice founded Town & Country Pediatrics as a solo practice on Chicago’s North Side in 1972. Thanks to our loyal Town & Country families, we’ve grown since then.
1972 - Town & Country Pediatrics founded in Lincoln Park by Dr. Howard Rice.
1980 - Opened a second Town & Country Pediatrics location in the North Suburbs.
1994 - Our first Certified Nurse Practitioner joined the practice.
1997 - A third Town & Country Pediatrics location was opened in the North side of Chicago.
2006 - Increased services for our families by adding Mental Health providers.
2016 - We finalized our partnership with Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago.
