“Because every thriving child starts with a healthy gut.”
Where Exceptional Pediatric Care and Expert Digestive Health Come Together.
Boutique Pediatrics + Pediatric Gastroenterology | Boca Raton, FL
At PediGut Health, we believe that every child deserves time, attention, and an expert who truly sees the whole child — not a rushed 10-minute visit. Founded by Dr. Natasha Mendez, a dual board-certified Pediatrician and Pediatric Gastroenterologist.
The Care Your Child Deserves
THE PEDIGUT DIFFERENCE
Pediatric Gastroenterology — Without the Rush
Digestive symptoms in children can, at times, be complex and layered. Families seeking pediatric GI care often find themselves navigating months-long wait times, brief high-volume visits, limited access to their physician, and fragmented communication across providers.
Here, your child receives:
- Extended, unrushed GI visits (45–60 minutes)
- Same- or next-day availability for urgent GI concerns
- Direct communication with your gastroenterologist
- Thoughtful, root-cause evaluations
- Coordinated care with your child’s existing pediatrician
- A physician who sees the whole child — not just a diagnosis
This is specialty care done differently — intentionally, personally, and with genuine connection.

MEET THE DOCTOR
Meet Dr. Natasha Mendez
Dual Board-Certified Pediatrician & Pediatric Gastroenterologist • Mother • Educator • Advocate for Whole-Child Wellness
Dr. Mendez brings years of experience caring for children with both common and complex gastrointestinal conditions. Her background in pediatrics allows her to approach GI concerns through a whole-child lens, while her gastroenterology training provides the depth needed for accurate diagnosis and long-term management.
Beyond her credentials, Dr. Mendez is known for something families value just as much: time, listening, and clarity.
She understands the anxiety parents feel when symptoms persist, growth falters, or answers are delayed. Her approach is grounded in the belief that when we slow down, listen deeply, and look at the whole child, we find the answers that truly help them thrive.
Her philosophy is simple:
When we slow down, listen deeply, and look at the whole child, we find the answers that truly help them thrive.
