Margiotti & Kroll Pediatrics was founded in 2001 by pediatricians Gerard Margiotti and Barry Kroll. Both having had many years of prior experience, it was their desire to establish a private practice dedicated to “modern care with old fashioned caring.” Under their direction, and with the help of highly qualified, dedicated staff, Margiotti & Kroll Pediatrics has become among the most respected in Bucks County. Along with expert medical care, some of the services available at the practice include behavioral health, nutrition and lactation counseling, speech therapy, as well as neuropsychological therapy. 

In addition to treating patients at Margiotti & Kroll Pediatrics, Dr. Margiotti is on staff at Abington Jefferson Health, Holy Redeemer Medical Center, and St. Mary Medical Center.

Dr. Margiotti has been practicing in the Bucks County area for over 30 years. A native of the area, he is a graduate of La Salle University and completed his medical school training at Hahnemann University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Additionally, he is board-certified in pediatrics by the American Board of Pediatrics, a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, as well as a member of the Pennsylvania Medical Society and the Bucks County Medical Society. 

Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. As a pediatrician, Dr. Margiotti examines, diagnoses, and treats children of all ages with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses. He understands that children change rapidly and that they must be approached with an appreciation for their stage of physical and mental development. 

Dr. Margiotti and his wife, Patty, have four children and five grandchildren.
