Dr. Charles A. Stein, MD
Pediatrician
100 Saunders St Culpeper Virginia, 22701About
I provide care for the full breadth of general pediatrics from birth to age 21. I see newborns in our local hospital, older children who need hospitalization, and childfren with a wide range of outpatient issues. Complex cases, including those requiring subspecialty or surgical care are referred to appropriate specialists. However, most patients can be treated in the pediatric office by a well-trained and thoughtful general pediatrician.
I care for children with many varied diagnoses, including asthma, allergies, ear infections, pneumonia, urinary infections and reflux, concussions, constipation, and anemia. I also take care children with a wide variety of behavioral and mental health issues, including ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder with or without hyperactivity), autism, depression, and aggressive behavior I work in conjunction with a child psychiatrist when appropriate.
In 33 years of pediatric practice since my residency, I am fortunate to have seen an incredible variety of common problems with unusual presentations as well as those which are truly uncommon.

Get to know Pediatrician Dr. Charles A. Stein, who serves patients in Culpeper, Virginia.
Dr. Stein is a well-known pediatrician from Culpeper, Virginia and is now with Wellspring Health Services, where he works with all aspects of pediatric care, but his area of special interest is around behavioral and psychiatric issues in children.
Wellspring Health Services has partnered with Privia Health to further enhance the quality of their patient care. They are dedicated to providing the very best healthcare for Culpeper and the surrounding communities. This cooperative relationship puts the latest technology and tools in place to enable their physicians and care teams to integrate patient care seamlessly and further complement the quality of care they provide.
Back in 1980, Dr. Stein earned his medical degree from the University of Virginia - Charlottesville. He then went on to further his training by completing an internship and residency in pediatrics at Vidant Medical Center in 1981 and 1983, respectively.
An expert in his field, the doctor is board-certified in pediatrics by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP). The mission of the ABP is to advance child health by certifying pediatricians who meet standards of excellence and are committed to continuous learning and improvement.
Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends individuals be under pediatric care up to the age of 21. Pediatricians provide medical care to people ranging in age from newborns to young adults. They are trained to examine, diagnose, and treat children with a wide variety of injuries and illnesses through all of their developmental stages, as they grow and mature.
A 35-year resident of Culpeper county, Dr. Stein has been providing care to the community since the early 1980s, when he first joined the staff of then Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Over the years, his reputation as a caring, engaged partner in health care has only increased – so much so that in 2007, he was named Physician of the Year at Culpeper Regional Hospital and in 2016 received Northern Virginia Magazine’s “Top Doctor” Award.
