Meet Dr. Juan Arana

Dr. Arana is a board certified pediatrician by the American Osteopathic Board of Pediatrics. Born in Bogota Colombia and grew up in Fort Pierce, Florida during early teenage years.

Dr. Arana obtained a Biology degree at The University of Florida (Go Gators!) and attended NSU-COM in Ft. Lauderdale where he achieved his Doctorate in Osteopathic Medicine. He completed his pediatric residency in Detroit MI and has been serving the Golden Isles since 2022.

Dr. Arana lives in Brunswick with his wife Tatiana and three beautiful children. He enjoys traveling with his family, baking with his children, and watching the Savannah Ghost Pirates play. Dr. Arana and his family are very involved in their faith and are parishioners at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church.

Dr. Arana has an extensive background and works with families from conception through early adulthood (21yrs of age). He works very closely with IBCLCs and has become an expert treating milk protein allergy and food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome from personal experience with his three children. As an osteopath, he enjoys performing osteopathic manipulative treatment and focuses in motion, function and acute/chronic muscular pain.

Dr. Arana has a passion for early childhood intervention, preventative care, asthma, childhood obesity and ADHD. His unique approach focused on family function, nutrition, cognitive behavior, and adverse childhood experiences helps him better identify the root of the problem and treat the individual as a whole.

What Our Families
Are Saying

  • We absolutely love Dr. Arana! He is always willing to listen. Very attentive to detail, questions and concerns. I love that I never feel rushed with my son when we have an appointment to see Dr. Arana. If I could give him more of a 5 star rating I definitely would! I refer him to all my friends and family. We’re so blessed to have someone like him to care for our son!

  • Dr. Arana is hands down the best pediatrician we have ever seen. He is kind, patient, knowledgeable, caring, informative, and compassionate. He interacts with the children and also discusses behavior, temperament, and parenting situations just as much as physical. He spent a couple minutes talking to my 3 year old son about consent before his exam and that meant so much. He truly is incredible and has come to our rescue and helped our babies get better many times.

  • Love Dr. Juan Arana, definitely one of the BEST Doctors Brunswick has ever seen! Communicates effectively to the parents, great with the kids and also doesn’t mind letting you know he’s going through the Journey of Parenthood together!
