Important News
Dear Sunshine Pediatrics Family, (A continuación encontrará una traducción al español.)
We’re excited to share some important news. In October 2025, Sunshine Pediatrics will be joining SouthernMED Pediatrics, a trusted medical group that serves families throughout the state, not just at their office in Fort Mill. This partnership reflects our continued commitment to exceptional care while opening the door to expanded resources and services for your family.
What does this mean for you?
There will be no disruption to your care. Our location and phone number will remain the same, and you’ll still be able to see the same trusted providers and staff. The only difference will be our new name (SouthernMED Pediatrics - Rock Hill) and the added support from the SouthernMED family of practices.
As part of this transition, and in accordance with state law, your medical records will automatically become a part of the SouthernMED Pediatrics group, which ensures a seamless continuation of care no matter which location you visit. But if you prefer to transfer your records elsewhere, please contact our office. We’d be sorry to see you go, but we’ll do everything we can to assist you during this transition.
In the coming weeks, you'll receive a welcome packet via email from SouthernMED with helpful information about their team, the expanded services available, and what to expect at your next visit.
We are truly honored to have cared for your family over the years, and we are committed to continuing that relationship as part of the SouthernMED family.
Sincerely,
Raj Patel, MD and the Sunshine staff

Estimada familia de Sunshine Pediatrics:
Nos complace compartir una noticia importante. En octubre de 2025, Sunshine Pediatrics se unirá a SouthernMED Pediatrics, un grupo médico de confianza que atiende a familias de todo el estado, no solo en su consultorio de Fort Mill. Esta colaboración refleja nuestro compromiso continuo con una atención excepcional, a la vez que abre las puertas a más recursos y servicios para su familia.
¿Qué significa esto para usted?
Su atención médica no se verá interrumpida. Nuestra ubicación y número de teléfono seguirán siendo los mismos, y podrá seguir atendiendo a los mismos profesionales y personal de confianza. La única diferencia será nuestro nuevo nombre (SouthernMED Pediatrics - Rock Hill) y el apoyo adicional de la familia de consultorios de SouthernMED.
Como parte de esta transición, y de acuerdo con la ley estatal, su historial médico pasará automáticamente a formar parte del grupo de Pediatría de SouthernMED, lo que garantiza una atención continua sin problemas, independientemente del centro que visite. Si prefiere transferir su historial a otro lugar, comuníquese con nuestra oficina. Lamentaríamos mucho su partida, pero haremos todo lo posible para ayudarle durante esta transición.
En las próximas semanas, recibirá un paquete de bienvenida por correo electrónico de SouthernMED con información útil sobre su equipo, los servicios ampliados disponibles y qué esperar en su próxima visita.
Nos sentimos verdaderamente honrados de haber cuidado de su familia a lo largo de los años y nos comprometemos a continuar esta relación como parte de la familia SouthernMED.
Atentamente,
Dr. Raj Patel y el equipo de Sunshine.
We have some sad news to share. Our nurse practitioner, Arianna Stone, will be leaving us on April 25th, 2024. While we’ll be sad to see her go, we’re excited for her and the new direction her career is taking. She’ll be specializing in Adolescent Gynecology in Charlotte, and we know with absolute certainty that she’ll be a great success! We’ll miss her terribly but wish her nothing but the best. For those of you with appointments to see Arianna Stone after she leaves, please call our office about your options. For now, your appointments will be moved over to our new Board-Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Cortney Danner, CPNP, who'll be joining our practice on April 3rd. She's a Charlotte native who has been caring for children for over 20 years, and we know you'll be in great hands! Please call our office with any questions about next steps.
We're joining Molina Healthcare for a Thanksgiving-themed food box giveaway for any Medicaid patient. The event will be on November 16th, between 10am-12noon. Just bring your child's Medicaid card, park nearby, and walk up to the side parking lot facing Herlong Avenue. For more information, call Kimberly Jean-Baptiste at Molina Healthcare: 803-543-1198. See you tomorrow!
