We have a pediatrician on call 24/7 for emergency issues when the office is closed. If you need to reach us, please call our office number, the operator will take your message and contact the doctor on call. You will receive a call back from the doctor within one to two hours. The fee for phone calls made after-hours when we provide medical advice that does not result in a doctor visit within twenty-four hours is $20.00. This charge is not covered by most insurance plans and is the responsibility of the patient. Please do not use this after-hours line for scheduling appointments or medication refills.

Well child visits are incredibly important in promoting the physical, mental, and social health of infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. Regular well child visits help parents, children and physicians:

• Identify and address concerns of parents and patients
• Identify and address possible concerns in the child's environment that may affect parenting and the child's well-being
• Identify and address developmental, behavioral, and health concerns that are identified through measurements, screens, tests, history, and physical examination at the visit
• Follow up on prior concerns and ongoing conditions
• Provide information, guidance and resources

What happens at a well child appointment?

• Based on your child's age, we may perform screening tests, such as blood tests or hearing and vision tests, to look for potential problems
• Your child's growth and vital signs will be obtained and evaluated
• Your provider will perform a thorough history and physical examination
• Any concerns identified through the above processes will be addressed
• A personalized plan of care and follow-up will be created between you and your child's health care provider
