Bard & Didriksen Pediatrics
Glen Carbon / Edwardsville, Illinois Pediatricians
The founding physicians of Bard and Didriksen Pediatrics have been in practice in the Edwardsville / Glen Carbon area for over 20 years. Since then, we have grown to a large multi-physician practice with five board certified pediatricians, specializing in the care of infants, children, and adolescents.
We offer premier pediatric care in a clean, comfortable and professional office setting. We have both male and female physicians.
Updates & News
Bard and Didriksen Pediatrics is able to do Covid-19 antigen testing of sick patients during the first five days of their symptoms. Out tests are not appropriate for people without symptoms. We will be happy to order those tests for your child offsite.

We are scheduling well child exams, school and sports physicals.
We are disinfecting our exam rooms after every patient.

We here at Bard and Didriksen Pediatrics want to thank all our wonderful families for their support and we are excited to see you this summer.
