Excel Pediatrics and Family Care: Citrus Tower Office and Patient Guide

Excel Pediatrics and Family Care identifies 265 Citrus Tower Boulevard, Suite 102, as its main Clermont office. The official location listing gives 352-394-3929 as the telephone number and 352-394-6446 as the fax number. The practice combines pediatric and adult care, with published information covering preventive visits, illness visits, developmental concerns, in-office procedures and financial-assistance options.

The Citrus Tower office within the group

Excel’s homepage describes a five-location group serving Lake and Sumter counties. Alongside Citrus Tower, it lists Leesburg, Tavares, Sumter Pediatrics and Professional Peds. Professional Peds is a separate Clermont location at 1050 US Highway 27, Suite 5. Families making an appointment should specify Citrus Tower because the group publishes different telephone numbers and separate registration documents for its offices.

The Citrus Tower location page lists Monday-through-Friday hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with lunch from noon to 1 p.m. Its address includes Suite 102, a useful detail when arranging a first visit. Confirm holiday schedules and the appointment time directly with the office; the website’s standard timetable does not establish day-specific availability.

The clinicians listed for Clermont

The practice’s team page identifies Mohammad Afzal, MD, as its pediatrician. It describes him as certified by the American Board of Pediatrics and as holding an MBA in health-care management. Those credential statements are attributed to the practice and were not independently verified for this article.

The same page places nurse practitioners Adam Figliola and Suzanne Wallis at the Clermont office, where their biographies describe seeing both children and adults. Figliola’s biography identifies family medicine as his focus and Nova Southeastern University as the institution where he earned his advanced degree. Wallis’s biography names the University of Central Florida and a master’s degree from the University of South Florida, and describes earlier mother-and-baby nursing work. These are published biographies rather than a daily staffing schedule; ask which clinician will handle the requested visit.

Checkups, screenings and school paperwork

The comprehensive-care page describes routine physicals, childhood vaccinations, vision and hearing screening, and care for premature babies. It also says blood can be drawn in the office. Its service list includes asthma, allergies, eczema, ear infections, reflux, school-performance concerns and developmental conditions. These are the practice’s descriptions of its scope, rather than recommendations for an individual child.

A separate physicals page lists annual, school, sports, college and employment physicals. For families arranging a school or sports visit, identifying the specific form and deadline when booking helps the office clarify the appointment type and paperwork required. The published list does not provide separate prices or turnaround times for completed forms.

Behavioral and developmental services

Excel’s behavioral-health page lists attention-deficit and attention-deficit/hyperactivity concerns, classroom focusing difficulties, learning disabilities, developmental and speech delays, autism, Down syndrome and other chronic developmental concerns. Mood disorders, depression and bipolar disorder also appear on the page. The practice says evaluation and treatment prescribing take place in the office.

The page does not describe the length of those appointments, a testing process or a schedule of counseling sessions. When calling about one of these services, ask what the initial appointment involves, which clinician provides it and whether the office needs prior school or clinical records. A broad service menu alone does not establish the exact evaluation available for a particular concern.

Illness visits and office procedures

The urgent-care page advertises walk-ins without an appointment and same-day illness visits. It also lists suture and staple removal. The practice’s introduction adds EKGs, spirometry, allergy injections and treatment of minor cuts or bruises to its office-procedure list. Availability for a particular procedure, age or arrival time was not checked; contact the Citrus Tower office to establish what can be handled during that visit.

Choosing the correct registration forms

The download page organizes paperwork by office and asks patients to complete forms before their visit. Under Clermont, it links a new-patient packet, a Spanish-language packet, a sliding-scale application and guidelines. Professional Pediatrics has its own section with separate child and adult packets in English and Spanish. Use the section matching the booked office, and ask staff which documents apply if the registration instructions are unclear.

Insurance and reduced-fee options

The insurance page publishes a partial list that includes Aetna, AvMed, BCBS, Cigna, Humana, Healthy Kids, Medicaid, Sunshine, Tricare and UnitedHealthcare, among other names. The practice itself cautions that plans change and invites callers to check insurance directly. This list does not verify an individual plan’s network, a particular clinician’s participation or payment for a specific service. Confirm those details with both the office and insurer before the visit.

For uninsured patients, the practice describes an income-based reduced-fee program and says applications and required-document lists are available at its offices. Its separate sliding-scale page says family size and income determine the discount. Current income thresholds, eligibility and charges were not independently confirmed. Request the current application and a visit estimate, including any separately charged tests or procedures.

The contact page publishes info@excelpeds.com and a general inquiry form, alongside the Citrus Tower telephone number. The homepage also offers an appointment-request form. Submitting an inquiry should be followed by confirmation of the office, clinician, date and time; no reservation was made during this review.
