Pediatric Associates South Lake in Clermont: Providers, Hours and First-Visit Details

Pediatric Associates South Lake is the group’s office at 3155 Citrus Tower Boulevard in Clermont. Its official website identifies a three-person clinical team, publishes weekday hours and provides resources for new patients, insurance questions, forms and online records. Families comparing pediatric offices can use those details to understand how this particular location handles scheduling and administration. This profile is based on official pages checked on October 15, 2026. It is a practice profile, not medical advice or an assessment of the care an individual child should receive.

The Citrus Tower Boulevard location

The South Lake office page lists 3155 Citrus Tower Boulevard, Clermont, FL 34711, and the telephone number (352) 242-1500. It also lists the fax number (352) 242-0053. Specify “South Lake” and the Citrus Tower Boulevard address when contacting the group so the appointment is attached to the intended branch.

The posted hours grid gives Monday as 7:45 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday as 7:45 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Friday as 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday are marked closed. A promotional section on that same page describes a 6 p.m. close Monday through Thursday, which conflicts with the Monday entry in the hours grid. Confirm Monday’s final appointment time directly. Group-wide references to evening or weekend care should not be taken to mean that this physical office is open on weekends.

Who appears on the South Lake team page

The location-specific provider directory lists three clinicians:

• Adinarayanamurthy Nallamshetty, MD, described by the practice as a board-certified pediatrician. The directory lists English and “Hindi (Urdu)” as spoken languages.
• Melissa A. Zegarra Bustamante, MD, FAAP, described as a board-certified pediatrician, with English and Spanish listed.
• Erin C. Markham, APRN, identified as a nurse practitioner, with English and Spanish listed.

These descriptions reflect the practice’s own directory. A roster does not establish who is available for a particular date or accepting a particular appointment type. When continuity with one clinician or a language preference matters, ask about that clinician’s South Lake schedule before choosing a time.

Appointment requests and same-day availability

The new-patient guide directs families to call to book a first appointment and gives the central number 855-KIDZ-DOC, or 855-543-9362. The branch’s local telephone number remains listed throughout its website. Online booking links are also present, but the information shown here does not establish an available appointment for a particular child or date.

The walk-in information page encourages families to call ahead for a same-day appointment. Its wording is deliberately conditional: limited walk-in availability may exist at selected locations. It does not promise an unrestricted walk-in service at South Lake. Before traveling without a booking, ask the office whether it can accommodate the requested visit and what arrival instructions apply.

Services described on the branch website

The South Lake services page groups its offerings into general pediatric care, testing, minor illness and injury care, adolescent services, allergy and asthma care, behavioral and developmental health, and other care categories. Listed examples include childhood vaccines, developmental screening, hearing and vision screening, breastfeeding and lactation care, point-of-care tests and on-site laboratory services.

The page also lists a 24/7 clinical advice line. These entries describe the practice’s published service categories; they do not establish availability for every clinician, age, appointment or insurance plan. For a specific test, form, procedure or ongoing-care request, ask the South Lake office whether it is handled there, whether a separate appointment is needed and how any charges are determined. Clinical questions about which services a child needs belong with the child’s care team.

What the new-patient guide asks families to bring

The official preparation checklist calls for an insurance card, a valid driver’s license and any applicable copayment at appointments. It also asks families to try to bring the child’s immunization record to a well visit. If an insurance card has not arrived, the guide lists alternative policy details to bring, including the insurer’s name and phone number, claim address, policy number and policyholder information.

For a newborn visit, the guide specifically lists the baby’s discharge summary, hearing-screen certificate and immunization tracker if a hepatitis B vaccine was given in the hospital. It also reminds families to add the newborn to their insurance. Check with the office about missing documents or a pending insurance update rather than assuming those issues have already been resolved through the hospital.

Families transferring from another practice can ask how prior records should be delivered and whether any forms need completion before arrival. That administrative step helps establish what the office has received without assuming that records automatically transferred from an unrelated practice.

Records, messages and the patient portal

The patient-portal page describes both a web portal and the healow app. Listed functions include viewing appointments, laboratory results, visit summaries and immunization history; requesting prescription refills; sending messages; and accessing billing or referral information. These are useful administrative options to ask about when establishing a patient account.

The page also discusses parent and guardian proxy access. Families should ask the office how access is established for each adult who needs it and which information or functions are available through that access. A portal message is not a confirmed appointment or a guarantee of an immediate response. Ask which contact method the office wants families to use for scheduling changes and time-sensitive questions.

Insurance and financial-assistance questions

The insurance page explicitly says accepted plans can vary by location and directs families to confirm with the local office. Before booking on the assumption that a visit is covered, verify the exact plan, selected provider and South Lake location with both the practice and the insurer. Also confirm the requested service, any referral or authorization requirement, and the family’s expected deductible, copayment or coinsurance. A general statement that the group accepts major insurers cannot guarantee a child’s benefits.

The same page describes a sliding-fee discount program for people who qualify, with income verification and an application process. Ask the office about the current eligibility requirements and which documents it needs. The presence of the program does not establish approval for an individual family or the final charge for a visit.

Forms and communication assistance

The Forms and Policies page collects links for medical-record requests, privacy documents, a late-arrival policy, financial-assistance paperwork and several assessment forms. Use that page to locate the relevant document, then ask staff which forms apply to the appointment. The listing alone does not establish the terms inside every linked policy.

That page also says patients can request an interpreter or other communication assistance by notifying staff in person or calling 855-543-9362. Raise those needs during scheduling so the office can explain the available arrangements. Confirming the branch, clinician, documents and payment details in one call gives a family a clearer plan for its first South Lake visit.
