Derrick Owens, MD, FAAP

We love Dr Owens. He obviously loves his job and kids. He’s so knowledgeable and does an incredible job giving thorough, but digestible explanations to any and all health concerns. He gives you, the parent, amazing consideration and patience. I appreciate his approach and bedside manner, very lovely, genuine, and joyful. Would recommend him to all parents in Jax area!

Dr. Owens is the best! He’s always attentive to our questions and concerns. He’s very calm and non-alarmist, but also not dismissive….and my first time mommy heart needs that. My daughter loves going to the Doctor.

Dr. Owens is our absolute FAVORITE! Carithers staff is always super friendly and helpful. They run so efficiently. Dr. Owens always takes his time with us and answers all questions we have. We always look forward to seeing him!

Dr. Owens is great. You can tell he really cares. He’s been our family pediatrician for the last 5 years and was highly recommended by a family friend.

Our family cannot say enough good things about Dr. Owens! He has been such a stellar part of our child’s life and we recommend him any time someone asks about pediatricians in Jacksonville. Thank you for all you do, Dr. Owens!
