APPOINTMENTS
Because your time is valuable, we will see
your child by appointment to reduce your
wait. If your child suddenly becomes ill,
always call our office. We can usually fit
your sick child into our appointment
schedule the same day.
Appointments are scheduled no more than 8 -
10 weeks in advance. Each doctor's schedule
is opened on the 10th of every month for the
next 2 months. If you have a doctor or time
preference for routine check-ups, schedule
your appointment then. Limited well
appointments are available during evening
hours, Tuesday through Thursday. Please
schedule follow up visits for a present
illness while you are in the office. If you
are unable to keep an appointment, call our
office as soon as possible to cancel or
reschedule. Advance cancellations will allow
other sick children to be seen sooner. In
this way, we can best serve all of our
patients.

You may have an insurance contract that requires you to choose one of our doctors as your child/children's primary care physician (PCP). If you have this type of insurance plan please call us first before seeking care elsewhere such as urgent care centers, emergency rooms, or specialists visits. If you do not call us first your insurance may not pay the claim.

CHECK-UPS, IMMUNIZATIONS
Check-ups are essential for your child's
continuing good health. Generally, we see
newborns at one and two months of age, then
at four, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, and
eighteen months. Two year olds should be
seen every six months and once a year after
three years of age. During regular
check-ups, your child will receive the basic
immunizations required by law and others
recommended to prevent serious illness.
