CHOC Hospital Orange
Dr. Sarah Kay Herrera, MD, FAAP, is a pediatrician at Southern Orange County Pediatric Associates in Ladera Ranch, California, specializing in the health and well-being of children. Practicing since 2015 and at SOCPA since 2022, she provides comprehensive, family-centered care for infants, children and teens.
Dr. Herrera also visits newborns at Hoag Hospital Irvine, Saddleback Medical Center, and Rady Children’s (formerly CHOC) at Mission Hospital.
She is passionate about treating sick kids and sharing with families the pattern of an illness and red flags to monitor. As a member of the Rady Children’s Health Primary Care Network, she is part of a nationally recognized pediatric health system to deliver coordinated care and streamline access to specialty care and additional services when necessary. She is affiliated with the American Academy of Pediatrics.
The foundation of pediatrics is preventive medicine. Dr. Herrera’s primary goal is to partner with parents by teaching them about vaccines, development milestones, nutrition, emotional well-being, and safety.
“I count it such an honor to equip parents with the tools to allow their little to grow and flourish.”
She has firsthand experience being a nervous parent of a 33 weeker preemie a few years ago, and she is forever grateful to CHOC (now Rady Children’s) NICU.

Pediatricians bring their own children to the doctor, too. They trust their children’s pediatricians for an objective opinion.
