Generally, your newborn's first appointment should be within the first week after birth. These appointments may be conducted at the hospital before the baby goes home or in an office setting outside of the hospital. It is best to consult with your provider regarding when and where your baby's first appointment should be. At All Better Pediatrics, we recommend your first scheduled check-up is on day two after birth. Here you will see one of our three extraordinary doctors, also international board-certified lactation consultants and mothers. Appointments may be scheduled online, over the phone, or in person. We also accept walk-ins and can get your baby seen the day you call!
