Pediatric Care Across Orange County
Southern Orange County Pediatric Associates (SOCPA) – part of Rady Children’s Health – is a primary care practice caring for infants, children, teens, and young adults up to age 21 across four offices in Irvine, Ladera Ranch, Rancho Santa Margarita, and San Clemente.
With after-hours care in Ladera Ranch and a 24/7 nurse advice line, SOCPA is built around the way OC families live: busy, mobile, and wanting one trusted team close to home.
