July 2025
Dear Patients,
We are excited to announce that effective September 2, 2025, we will join WashU Medicine’s primary care physician organization, Washington University Clinical Associates (WUCA). With this change, we will be updating the name of our practice to WUCA – Brentwood Pediatrics. We’ve had a long-standing relationship with WashU Medicine and St. Louis Children’s Hospital, and this transition further secures our relationship and enhances our ability to provide excellent care to our patients.
What does this mean to you? You will still see our dedicated Brentwood Pediatrics staff, and we will remain in our current location. You will, however, notice reference to WashU Medicine on our billing statements, website and prescriptions. We will also change over to WashU Medicine’s electronic medical record system, allowing full use of the MyChart patient portal.
Effective September 2, 2025, we will participate solely in WashU Medicine’s insurance plans. As always, we ask that you bring your insurance card to every office visit. For a list of insurance plans that will be accepted by our practice, please visit
physicians.washu.edu/health-insurance, or scan the code to the right. If your plan is not listed, our office will no longer be in-network as of September 2, 2025. If you think this may be the case, please call us to verify and so we can assist you in finding a different option. It is our privilege to care for your family, and we hope to continue serving as your pediatrician.
We realize that this transition may cause temporary disruptions, and we greatly appreciate your patience and confidence in us at this time. As you know, our primary focus has always been providing high quality personal care to our families. We believe this partnership with WashU strengthens our ability to provide you with excellent service and innovative care. Please let us know of any questions you may have regarding this transition by calling 314-918-8827. We are truly grateful for your trust and look forward to continuing to serve you in the years to come.
Sincerely,
Dr. Anchal Sethi
Dr. Sierra Stippich
Dr. Joshua Smith
