Full Circle Pediatrics
Putting the physician-patient relationship first
Welcome to Full Circle Pediatrics, which is a Direct Primary Care model providing unlimited access to your physician. With this membership model, families pay an affordable monthly fee which covers in-home visits, visits in our Osceola office or St. Croix Falls, and care by phone calls, texts, video visits and email.
Yes, you can text your doctor!
Direct Primary Care is just as it sounds, patients get direct, unlimited access to Dr. Rider by email, text, phone, or video visits. Dr. Rider describes DPC as a new way to practice old fashioned medicine. “I named my practice Full Circle Pediatrics because this feels like my career coming full circle. I became a doctor to help people, and I do not like how medicine has become big business, with pressure to see as many people as possible in a day and charge as much as possible. DPC puts the doctor-patient relationship first,” she said. Direct Primary Care is a membership health care model which takes out the intermediaries of insurance companies and corporate health companies.
Set up a Meet and Greet with Dr. Rider.

Vivian Rider MD
I'm not cooped up in an office anymore!
I meet you in the way that works best for your family--in your home or my office in Osceola, or by text, phone call, email or video visit.
Dr. Vivian Rider has been my son’s pediatrician since his release from the NICU. Over the past two years she has been very kind and knowledgeable with every question and concern my family has had concerning his health. She was also an advocate for my breastfeeding, especially when it was extremely difficult. I would recommend Dr. Vivian Rider whole heartedly to any new or veteran parent.

Dr. Vivian Rider was my children’s pediatrician. She always had a great bedside manner and was very patient and gentle. She always invested her time in listening thoroughly and asking questions. We were very saddened when she moved. If you are looking for a fantastic doctor for your child(ren), she’s the one you want!

Dr. Rider was both of my children's pediatrician. She is genuinely one of the most kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable doctors our family has worked with. She has supported our whole family through our kids' multiple health issues. We are so grateful for her! We recommend her to everyone looking for a great doctor for their kids!
