In the 1930s, just as pediatric medicine was being refined, Dr. James C. Overall opened the pediatric practice that would become Old Harding Pediatric Associates (OHPA). Many childhood illnesses were common at the time, with devastating effects on the health of children. It was in this challenging time that Dr. Overall set out to serve the children and families of Nashville.
Then, in the late 30s, the growing practice added Dr. Joe Strayhorn, in a partnership that would span 35 years. Although pediatric care has made great strides since OHPA was founded, our current physicians share Dr. Overall's original vision for state-of-the-art pediatric care that consistently seeks new opportunities to improve the health of children.
