Bambini Pediatrics

What Bambini Pediatrics does

Bambini Pediatrics PC is a privately held integrative pediatric medical practice operating from a single office at 4232 Albany Post Road, Hyde Park, New York. Founded by Dr. Joseph T. Malak (a charter member of the AAP Section on Complementary, Holistic, and Integrative Medicine), the practice combines conventional pediatric primary care — check-ups, immunizations, urgent visits, prescriptions — with complementary and holistic options including herbs, homeopathic remedies, biomedical treatment for children with autism spectrum disorders, PANDAS, ADHD, Lyme disease, and other special needs, plus referrals to natural healthcare specialists. It is the only integrative pediatric practice in the Hudson Valley, distinguished by NCQA Level 3 Patient Centered Medical Home certification (since January 2018, held by only ~7% of US physicians) and New York State PCMH certification (since 2019).

The practice's product surface spans core pediatric services, telemedicine e-visits via the Doxy.me platform (for established patients within New York state), a Medent-based patient portal enabling appointment booking, secure messaging, refill requests, and balance payments, and the on-site Bambini Apothecary — a dispensary of 300+ products including vitamins, herbals, homeopathics, Bluebird Botanicals CBD oils, the ProImmune glutathione-booster supplement, and medical supplies such as pulse oximeters and nebulizers, with a separate online store at bambiniapothecary.com. The clinical team comprises three pediatricians (Dr. Joseph T. Malak, Dr. Mukai Jaravaza, Dr. Michael A. Miller — the latter board-certified in pediatric infectious diseases with a Yale fellowship), four nurse practitioners, one physician assistant, and roughly twenty support staff including nurses, billing specialists, a lactation counselor, and IV infusion services personnel.

Bambini generates revenue through a fee-for-service model with tiered office-visit pricing ($80 brief / $160 expanded / $240 complex), self-pay telemedicine ($75 for 15 min / $150 for 30 min), apothecary retail margins (with competitive positioning such as krill oil priced 25% below CVS), premium non-insurance-covered services billed at $300 per clinician hour, prescription refill fees of $25–$50, and ancillary charges (ear piercing, EMLA application, form completion). Approximately 2,000 families receive the practice newsletter and constitute the patient base; the practice reopened to new patients as of June 15, 2026 after a prior intake closure. Distribution is direct-to-consumer in-person plus NY-state telemedicine, with no hospital privileges held and inpatient referrals routed primarily to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital.
