Akron Children’s to open first pediatric primary care office in Cuyahoga Falls
09-19-2025 (Akron, Ohio)
Akron Children’s is expanding its reach in Summit County with the opening of its first pediatric primary care location in Cuyahoga Falls. The new practice combines two existing independent Pediatrics of Akron offices – one on the Akron hospital campus and one in Cuyahoga Falls – into a single, state-of-the-art facility designed to meet the growing needs of local families.
Located at 1625 Portage Trail, the new Akron Children’s Pediatrics office will open on Sept. 30 and will feature 20 exam rooms, convenient parking and access to the hospital’s extensive network of pediatric specialists. The move strengthens Akron Children’s commitment to providing high-quality, family-centered care in an underserved market.
“Patients who were previously with Pediatrics of Akron will automatically transition to become Akron Children’s Pediatrics patients without needing to transfer records or re-establish care,” said Brad Cunningham, senior director of primary care and school health for Akron Children’s. “We are excited that patients can remain with their trusted providers and confident the enhanced facilities and convenient access to Akron Children’s broader network of specialty providers and services will be an asset to patients.”
In addition to serving current patients, Akron Children’s Pediatrics Cuyahoga Falls is welcoming:
- Parents of newborns and young children seeking a trusted pediatrician
- Families relocating to the Cuyahoga Falls area
- Parents who may be looking for a new pediatrician
The new office is located just blocks away from the new Cuyahoga Falls middle/high school, opening in January 2026, making it an even more convenient option for families in the community.
With this expansion, Akron Children’s continues its mission of bringing care closer to where families live, learn and play. Parents interested in learning more or scheduling an appointment at the new Cuyahoga Falls office can call 330-543-2778 or visit akronchildrens.org/pediatrics.
