Pediatric Specialists of Virginia (PSV) Announces Relocation and Expansion of Ashburn Clinic

Pediatric Specialists of Virginia (PSV) is excited to introduce a new logo that reflects the strength of our mission and the power of our partnerships.

The new design brings together elements from both Children’s National Hospital and Inova Children’s—the two parent organizations that jointly founded PSV. This new look represents who we are today: a trusted leader in pediatric specialty care, grounded in collaboration, expertise, and a shared commitment to children and families across the region.

The new logo will begin appearing across PSV’s digital platforms, including our website, social media, and email communications. Updates to print materials and signage will follow in phases as part of a broader brand refresh.

We look forward to continuing to serve our patients and families with the same care and compassion, now with a fresh new look that honors our past and looks ahead to the future.

About Pediatric Specialists of Virginia
Pediatric Specialists of Virginia (PSV) was collaboratively created by Children’s National Hospital and Inova Health System in 2013 as a pediatric specialty group dedicated to caring for the needs of children in Northern Virginia and surrounding areas. Its mission is to provide superb pediatric specialty care through clinical excellence, innovation, education, research, and family-centered care. As a medical group practice with tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, our specialists care for children during hospital stays at Children’s National and Inova Children’s Hospital and throughout their childhood on an ongoing, outpatient basis. Many are recognized as “Top Doctors” by Washingtonian, Arlington Magazine, and Northern Virginia Magazine and have appeared in U.S. News & World Report as leading experts in their fields.

Update on First Name Error on Patient Letters

Many of you recently received a letter from Pediatric Specialists of Virginia (PSV) explaining our transition. We have learned that the first name on many of these letters was not the correct first name. All the other information on the envelope including last name and address are correct. The contents of the letter are also correct. Unfortunately during the production of the letter the data file became corrupt and the incorrect first name was placed on the envelope. Rest assured you only received information for your child and your child’s information was not shared with anyone else. We are sincerely sorry for the confusion and inconvenience this has caused. 

As of February 6, 2023, PSV has transitioned some of our specialty services to one or both of our parent organizations— Children’s National Hospital and Inova Children’s — while others remain with PSV.

For the complete list of specialty services and providers staying with PSV or transitioning to Children’s National or Inova Children’s, click here.

If you have a scheduled appointment with a provider transitioning out of PSV, then your appointment has automatically transferred to either Children’s National (located in the same building as PSV in Fairfax) or Inova Children’s (Fairfax or Ashburn locations), and your medical records are with your care team at their new location. For a full list of Children’s National and Inova Children’s locations, click here.
