Norwood Behavioral Health (NBH), founded in 2016, is a collaboration between Dr. Joseph Schembri, Ed.D and Pediatric Associates of Norwood and Franklin (PANF). Our aim is to provide the highest quality behavioral healthcare in a timely fashion to our community.
Dr. Schembri has been practicing in Norwood for the past 15 years, seeing children and consulting on proper parenting techniques for children with behavioral challenges.
PANF has been providing pediatric care to the towns of Norwood, Franklin, and surrounding communities since 1977.
NBH, located in the same building as PANF (Norwood and Franklin office), links behavioral health to the medical home. Regular communication between NBH staff and the pediatricians at PANF allows for the most effective care.
