About Us

Discovery Pediatrics has proudly served families in Silver Spring, Maryland for over 75 years. Established in the 1950s, the practice has been a trusted part of the community for generations and has been led by Dr. Gitterman and Dr. Madden since the 1990s.

Today, we are proud to remain one of the few independently owned private practice pediatric offices in the DMV. Our independence allows us to focus on what matters most—building lasting relationships with families and providing thoughtful, personalized care for children from infancy through young adulthood.

Caring for children and supporting growing families is more than our profession—it is truly our passion. For decades, we have been honored to care for multiple generations of families in our community and look forward to continuing that tradition for years to come.
